Auto-complete fields in Safari?

Given the fact that we are often logging into web sites, having to always populate user IDs and password on the iphone's tiny touch keypad, is there a way to have Safari either remember or somehow assist in auto-completing these fields the way a Web Browser works on a full sized computer?

I login to a number of websites that require a user name and password entry including this website. The user name entry is remembered and automatically entered in the user name field when I return to such a website, which is saved as a cookie.
The password entry is not saved as part of a security feature in the event your iPhone is lost or stolen especially if you don't use the passcode lock feature.
What is your setting on the iPhone for accepting cookies?

  • Redirect to 3 diffrent pages based on value in the Auto complete field.

    Hi Friends,
    I am using an "Auto complete field" in a page for searching(Apex version 4.0). But i need to get values from 3 tables and when clicking on the value redirect to any of the 3 pages based on the value.
    For example i am having 3 tables. 1.Customers 2.Sites 3.Employees. When i enter 'c' in the search field i need to get values from 3 tables to be listed in that "auto complete" field. i.e, if i am having customer with name 'cusotmer1', 'customer2' and site with names 'cisc1','cisc2' and employees with name'cid1','cid2' ; when i enter 'c' in the auto complete field all 6 values must be listed in the "auto complete" field and when clicking on 'customer1'/'customer2' need to redirect to page 'customer'. When clicking on 'cisc1'/'cisc2' redirect to "site" when clicking on 'cid1'/'cid2' redirect to employees page. Is there any way to achieve this. Please help.

    Hi Nav,
    OK - on my page 1, I have a "Text Field with autocomplete" item called P1_SELECTION. The List of Values definition setting for this is:
    WITH D AS (SELECT ENAME || ' (Employee)' X
    FROM EMP
    UNION ALL
    SELECT DNAME || ' (Department)' X
    FROM DEPT)
    SELECT X
    FROM D
    ORDER BY 1This adds the appropriate suffix to each item to show where the data is from - you can change this if you want as this becomes part of the searchable text.
    On page 1, I have a normal SUBMIT button.
    Then I have two branches:
    1 - settings are:
    Branch Type: Branch to Page or URL
    Branch Point: On Submit: After Processing (After Computation, Validation, and Processing)
    Target Type: Page in this Application
    Page: 2 (the employee edit page)
    Clear Cache: 2
    Set these items: P2_ENAME
    With these values: &P1_SELECTION.
    Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P1_SELECTION LIKE '%(Employee)'When Button Pressed: SUBMIT
    2 - settings are:
    Branch Type: Branch to Page or URL
    Branch Point: On Submit: After Processing (After Computation, Validation, and Processing)
    Target Type: Page in this Application
    Page: 3 (the department edit page)
    Clear Cache: 3
    Set these items: P3_DNAME
    With these values: &P1_SELECTION.
    Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P1_SELECTION LIKE '%(Department)'When Button Pressed: SUBMIT
    On page 2 (the employee edit form), I have Computation with the following settings:
    Item Name: P2_EMPNO
    Type: SQL Query (return single value)
    Computation Point: Before Header
    Computation:
    SELECT EMPNO
    FROM EMP
    WHERE ENAME || ' (Employee)' = :P2_ENAME Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P2_ENAME LIKE '%(Employee)'On page 3 (the department edit form), I have Computation with the following settings:
    Item Name: P2_DEPTNO
    Type: SQL Query (return single value)
    Computation Point: Before Header
    Computation:
    SELECT DEPTNO
    FROM DEPT
    WHERE DNAME || ' (Department)' = :P3_DNAMECondition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P3_DNAME LIKE '%(Department)'The idea is that we append some fixed text to the end of the names in the autocomplete list. When the user clicks submit after selecting a name, one of the branches will be triggered depending on which fixed text is there. The branch sets the ENAME or DNAME value on the edit page and the computation on that page retrieves the appropriate EMPNO or DEPTNO value to put into the primary key page item (the main "Fetch Row..." process will then use that to get the real data for the record).
    Note that this assumes that ENAME and DNAME are unique on their tables - otherwise, the computations will not be able to find a single record and an error would be generated.

  • Can't disable Web Address Auto-complete in Safari nor Firefox

    Hi there,
    I am trying to disable the web address auto-complete in order to access my Intranet Server. I tried configuration inside Web Browser (firefox) but doesn't work. Seems to be system configuration since is the same with Safari. If I enter the address http://myserver:8080 always autocompletes to http://www.myserver.com:8080 and can't access the Intranet web server...
    Thanks in advance for the help.
    Pepe
    Mac OSX 10.6.2

    Safari and Firefox, both have a configuration utility to solve this. In Firefox, writing about:config in the address bar and look for the features that contains the prefix www and the suffix .com, clear those two fields and that's it.
    So, the problem was browser related, not system related.
    Thanks

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • Why does Google auto-complete fail in Firefox 17.0.1 when I type something in the search field there is no pull down list of options as I type?

    When I type a word or term into the Google search bar the auto-complete fails; there is no pull down list of options for my search, only what I have completely typed in. I have to type in the complete word or term that I am searching for and then press return to get the results. I'm using a MacBook and OS X 10.7.5 Please help! This is so frustrating!

    Note that websites may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving and filling autocomplete data as I posted above.
    Did you check for that?
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered
    If a site uses autocomplete="off" then look at this article for a bookmarklet to remove the autocomplete attribute.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered (bookmarklet)
    You can paste this code in the command line in the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console; Ctrl+Shift+K) and press the Enter key to verify if there is an input field with autocomplete.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools/Web_Console
    <pre><nowiki>var c=0,e=document.querySelectorAll('input[autocomplete],form[autocomplete]'),T='\n';
    for(i=0;E=e[i];++i){T+='['+(++c)+'] '+(E.name||'#'+E.id)+' ('+(V=E.getAttribute('autocomplete').toLowerCase())+')\n';}

  • Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ?

    Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ? even when the option is selected in autofill tab, and the user-password are listed in the password tab ?
    It used to work fine before I upgraded to mountain lion.
      Tks

    Same problem for me since upgrading to ML.  Safari remembers autofills for some passwords but not others.  For example my web mail password was no longer auto filled.  Checked in the keychain list and all the info was there. Therefore I deleted this and tried again - but Safari did not offer to remember the password.  Than ran an old script I had that is designed to "Removed autocomplete=off from 0 forms and from 2 form elements, and removed onsubmit from 0 forms. After you type your password and submit the form, the browser will offer to remember your password." Safari then offered to remember the password.  I accepted this and checked that the password was then saved in keychain - it was. However, next time I tried to access the email Safari once more did not auto complete.  Very frustrating, especially as some auto completes do work.  I hope apple sort this out soon.

  • Address in "To" field not auto completing

    When I type a contact name in the "To" field that is in my address book, the e-mail address is not auto completing. I had this happen before and figured it out but this time my memory isn't working.
    Thanks.
    Clint

    Hello Ernie,
    That preference is checked. I seemed to have fixed the problem by rebuilding the inbox and restarting Mail. I'm not sure I see the connection but that seems to have done the trick.
    Have a good day.

  • ITunes 10.5 crashes every time I type in an auto-complete enabled field

    Greetings,
    I have my music collection on a NAS drive, and have recently upgraded my laptop and so moved the iTunes library files to the new machine.
    Both the old and new machines run Windows7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    While playing and syncing work well, I am unable to edit any auto-complete enabled field in a track's (or track group's) properties (e.g. artist, album) without having the iTunes application crash immediately.
    I am able to edit these fields only by pasting from an external editor (e.g. open notepad, write the new content, copy, switch to iTunes and paste).
    I have tried a complete uninstall of iTunes (including apple program support), but the issue recurred after iTunes was re-installed.
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Auto Complete feature in input field

    Hi,
    I had a requirement like user gives the data in input field in the screen. If he start typing the data in input field the list of possible values should display automatically for Eg in google if we type 'A' the list of values will come.

  • Can I extend the width of auto-complete beyond form field itself?

    I have a form field that has a width of about 30. Often, the information entered is longer than 30 characters.
    I use auto complete on my forms option.
    Is it possible to extend the drop down of auto-complete-saved information beyond the 30 characters of the form-field itself? Sometimes the first 30 characters of more than one previously entered answer are the same.
    The only way to know if I selected the right one is to just guess and then go to end and see if I picked the right one.
    Thanks in advance.

    There are a few extensions that allow you to "drag" a '''textarea''' larger than what the web page specifies, but AFAIK those extensions only work with multi line textareas not with '''''single line''''' form textareas.
    I have used this extension in the past, but it has been problematic in Firefox 3.6 versions. IIRC it didn't ever work with single line textareas, like in forms. <br />

  • How to disable auto-complete for a text field?

    I didn't find any attribute that controls this. Thanks!

    Hi,
    Recently I needed to use this feature, and after some research I found the answer.
    Just sharing the solution.
    I am aware that the auto-complete is a browser setting. But is there a way to let APEX not save the items entered before? Write a javascript?
    Because I have implemented Google suggest for a text field. Every time the suggestions pop up, the auto-complete items will also appear at the same time, which is very annoying.Put on your Page Item > Element > HTML Form Element Attributes : autocomplete="off"

  • Forms 11g auto-complete date field

    Hi,
    In forms60 we had a few registry keys that made it possible for the end user to type in parts of a date and have it auto-completed.
    Example :
    The user wants to type in 20/10/2010 but merely had to type in 20<ENTER>
    This worked in forms60, is there a way to achieve this in forms 11g?
    Thank you
    PS: I have already tried
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/YYYY
    FORMS_OUTPUT_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/YYYY
    FORMS_USER_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/YYYY
    In default.env with no luck.

    Dear Christian, yes I am certain.
    I just investigated it a little more and it appears it all depends on the following registry keys :
    HKLM\Software\Oracle\forms60_user_date_format which has value : ddmmyyyy|ddmm|dd|dd/mm/yy|ddmmyy|dd/mm|dd/mm/yyyy
    HKLM\Software\Oracle\forms60_user_datetime_format which has value : ddmmyyyyhh24mi|ddmmyyyy hh24mi|dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi|ddmm hh24mi|ddhh24mi|dd hh24mi|ddmmhh24mi|ddmmyyyyhh24mi
    These appear to define in what formats a user can input a date.
    The one I was talking about appears to be about the *|dd|* which would imply the user can input the day and the rest will be autocompleted.
    I did find another thread about this issue, but it is for 10g and they never really found out the whys and hows...

    Thanks for your help.

  • Adding a timeout to Auto Complete doesn't work for IE

    We implemented our own declarative auto complete component. So we're manually handling KeyUp and KeyDown.
    One thing that we need to do is to add a timeout so that when the user is typing, we don't fire the bean code to do the query on every key pressed, but only do it after say half a second. That way if the user is intending to type 3 keys, we only need to fire our query once, where realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField is the function that calls the query among other things.
    This is called from our ClientListener
    function handleKeyUpOnSuggestField(evt) {
        var realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField = function () {
            // start the popup aligned to the component that launched it
            var inputField = evt.getSource();
            var suggestPopup = inputField.findComponent("suggestPopup");
            //   var suggestTable = inputField.findComponent("suggestTable");
            //don't open when user "tabs" into field
            var valueStr = inputField.getSubmittedValue();
            // Special characters coming from scanner. Don't popup if that's the case.
            if (suggestPopup.isShowing() == false && evt.getKeyCode() != AdfKeyStroke.TAB_KEY) {
                //hints = {align:AdfRichPopup.ALIGN_AFTER_START, alignId:evt.getSource().getClientId()+"::content"};
                var alignTo = inputField.getClientId() + "::content";
                var hints = {
                    align : AdfRichPopup.ALIGN_AFTER_START, alignId : alignTo
                suggestPopup.show(hints);
                //disable popup hide to avoid popup to flicker on
                //key press
                suggestPopup.hide = function () {
            //suppress server access for the following keys
            //for better performance
            if (evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWLEFT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWRIGHT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWLEFT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.SHIFT_MASK || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.END_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ALT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.HOME_KEY) {
                return false;
            if (evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ESC_KEY) {
                hidePopup(evt);
                return false;
                // query suggest list on the server
                AdfCustomEvent.queue(suggestPopup, "suggestServerListener",
                // Send single parameter
                    filterString : valueStr
    true);
        var inputField = evt.getSource();
        if (window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()]) {
            window.clearTimeout(window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()]);
        window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()] = window.setTimeout(realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField, 500);
    }This works fine in FireFox and Safari and Chrome, but not in IE.

    When I debugged through, it seems like the event's getKeyCode() doesn't exist. I'm assuming it's something to do with scope for IE working different than FireFox.
    I realize this is more JavaScript question, but I'm wondering if anyone got something like that to work on ADF. As far as I know, there's no other way besides using JavaScript and IE doesn't seem handle scoping very well. I can't use a global parameter because I'm using this in a component and you can have multiple components in a page.

    Heya Waleed,
    I use spry to create an autocomplete form that works great across browsers that have javascript enabled. You can store info in a database and parse the info to xml for a dynamic approach. Take a look at the filter examples in spry.
