phpjim Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Hi everyone - love PHPFreaks.com I have a weird programming question. I've visited websites where even though I've cleared cookies through my browser, I noticed that when I click on a some websites login form, my user name and pw are still present. Is there a way programming with PHP for the user name and password to remain on the client to populate the login form or is this something the browser does when it asks the user if they way to save the password and user name? Some would say why would you want to do this, and my answer is more of how it's done. I like how we can post in this Word type window - does anyone know where the source or class is to this nice interface on PHPFreaks.com?

davidannis Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 There are lots of ways that your username and password could be filled. Most likely it is stored in your browser. Looking at the preferences for Firefox there is an option to save passwords for websites.

KevinM1 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Regarding in-place text editors, there are plenty you can find and use. TinyMCE, CKEditor, etc. I'm not sure what we're using as it's part of IPB's software. Philip would know.
