Problem: I want firefox to save every form selection (on one particular web form) and populate my info when i open the page. My browser was doing this automatically, without my doing the drop-down manual autofill stuff, until yesterday. i don't know why my pc cleared the browser or whatever, but i want it to start doing that again.

i do NOT want instructions on normal autofill. What i need is for firefox to fill in the form, itself, upon page load. Because it already happened before.

This would be really easy if there was a way to contact firefox support. The last time i asked a Q like this, all the responders were wrong, or didn't pay attention. Someone who actually works for firefox would know instantly, and it would save you and me a ton of time.

Are you using the built-in form filler, or an add-on? I think an add-on is better.

This is Firefox's support forum .... As Firefox is a free product, Mozilla, the company that makes Firefox, doesn't have the financial means to maintain a professional help desk.

IMHO : you just might get way better support here than on those helpdesks, as volunteer contributors aren't doing it for the money, but they're doing it because they want to help other users)

You are referring to your original thread here :

It would be best to continue there ......
