How do i get it to remember the password for this site ?

If you mean "Firefox" then, Tools/Edit-> Options-> Security-> Exceptions. And remove the website from Exception list.

something is wrong with my FF

what version are you using ?

it saves the username only but not the password for all sites ..... my passwword manager shows 0 stored passwords

btw i saw that for some sites password save option does not appear as it is requested by the site to be so.

to disable such a feature you can use this method

Quote:

In Firefox's nsLoginManager.js file, comment out the following lines:

if (element && element.hasAttribute("autocomplete") &&
element.getAttribute("autocomplete").toLowerCase() == "off")
return true;

The nsLoginManager.js file can be found in Firefox's "components" folder, which varies in location from system to system. On Linux, the command "locate nsLoginManager.js" will tell you right where it is.
