We are using SaaS web-based application that has been developed on our company. From some reason, the FireFox broser remember the user & Password in the login page but the IE browser and Chrome does not.

what can be difference between FF and other browsrs?

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?

There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page to log you in automatically.
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you anymore and you need to sign in once again.

sorry for the delay. i am asking about the password manager. why in firefox theuser and password are being auto complete and on IE and Chrome it doesn't?

You can add an autocomplete=off attribute to an input field to prevent Firefox from storing the value of that input field.

I haven't used this feature in IE or Chrome. Which behavior do you prefer? Are you trying to block automatic login?
