This is not the best forum for this question...

What language are you using for your web pages? For example, PHP, ASP.Net, Ruby, Python... There will be different recommendations for each server technology.

Also, please do NOT store the username and password in a cookie, especially if you are not using SSL (HTTPS), because the cookies are sent to the server with every single page request and that's a whole lot of traffic to sniff.

Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.

  • Create an allow Cookie Exception to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":

  • do not clear Cookies
  • do not clear Site Preferences

Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies that have an allow exception and cookies from plugins.
