Firefox was not remembering complete logon info for a particular site. I removed the page from the Saved Passwords hoping it would resave next time I went to the site, but no such luck. How do I get FF to remember passwords for a particular site again?

Hello Julie.

I read reinstalling Firefox will fix the issue. Hope it works for you.

Make sure that you do not have that site in the exceptions: Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions

If a site uses autocomplete="off" then look at this article for a bookmarklet to remove that autocomplete attribute. http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered (bookmarklet) http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_Manager
