How to save passwords on sites that don't automatically give you the option to

I enjoy the convenience of saving passwords on my home computers as I usually have quite a few different ones and it can get rather difficult to remember which one goes with which site. I usually don't have a problem as most sites are recognized by firefox and prompt me if I would like to save them. I did find a javascript function that allowed most other sites that firefox didn't automatically recognize to prompt to remember the passwords, however there is still one site using a thing called Single Sign On that I just can't get to remember my password for. This is rather annoying since it is a site I need to log onto multiple times a day and times you out with inactivity. If anyone knows how to get a Single Sign On site to prompt for remembering a password, that would be greatly appreciated.

For some ways around this see User name and password not remembered - MozillaZine Knowledge Base

Another option is the Saved Password Editor add-oin which allows you to add passwords for sites that disable password saving.

I tried all of those suggestions and it still doesn't remember the password.

This Single Sign On thing is tough. It seems that the password form isn't recognized by any of these things.
