Other Stuff
Welcome to the Autofill Extension Project page.
When I switched from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox the one thing I missed was the Google Autofill function in the IE Google Toolbar. None of the existing form related extensions did quite what I wanted so I decided to write my own. After alot of coercion I convinced my colleague and friend, Jesper Kristensen, to write it with me. Our extension is a semi-faithful recreation of Google's IE Autofill function in Mozilla Firefox
Features Include:
- Creation of an unlimited number of user profiles
- Automatically highlight all the fields in the current form that can be filled in
- Manifests as an additional toolbar button that can be added to any existing toolbar (e.g. the Navigation Toolbar) (to save screen real estate)
- TRUE support of RFC3106 (Google Autofill claims to support it, but actually doesn't)
- Support for autofill of Credit Card information (All credit card information is stored encrypted and password protected)
- Matching of form fields on field name or field label
To Dos (in no particular order):
- Add support for user defined custom attributes
- Add support for regular expression definition of field names (maybe)
- Localization of Preferences Dialog, etc. (Use Homepage statistics to determine the order of localization)
- Cleanup/Refactoring of the preference dialog code
- Move default preferences to the standard way of defining
- Add Shift-Click preview function
Known Bugs:
- The drop-down menu (but not the context or popup menu) doesn't check the currently selected profile when using custom themes(though it does actually select the one clicked)
