im using firefox and i notice that my autocomplete is broken for remembering logins on gmail (specifically) i havent noticed if its broken elsewhere as well, im posting this hoping someone can help me remedy this before i have to investigate this too deep. i've already spent an hour on the firefox forums searching for an answer figured i would post here before there, thanks in advance.

What do you mean by broken? It has the wrong login info or none at all?

it has the past login names that ive used, (on my other computer it will continue to "remember" any name i type into the login space, as im sure you all know because thats the normal behaviour of firefox,) but on this computer it wont remember the login names i use anymore, i dont know if maybe an obscure setting or plugin that may have disabled the ability for firefox to perform like it should but i would be greatful for any thoughts on the subject

You can always delete any old names/passwords and try it clean. Highlight the old words and Shift/Delete. Unless there's nothing in the spaces at all. Then I don't know what to do.

weird, okay that worked partly i have several accounts with gmail, and after i deleted them and re-entered all of them stuck except the name that starts with an A, even the ones that wouldnt before, maybe this is a bug or something, either way i appreciate it, as it did help some. i wish i knew why the A made a difference.
