When I sign onto a site that requires a Password, why does the Save Password box not pop open, even though I have that feature turned on?

I've turned the "Save Password" feature on & off, hit save and even rebooted my computer and nothing I do will cause the "Save Password" box to pop open and give me a chance to save my passwords. It does pop open for a few sites, but for most it does not pop open!

Chosen solution

hello, websites can specify if browsers should be able to save username/passwords (through the autocomplete="off" attribute in the login form in the html source code) and many banks choose to do this presumably to increase security.

you can either install an addon or use a bookmarklet to circumvent this behaviour.
