Firefox password manager - multiple logins for HTTP authentication
One way around this behavior is to create bookmarks for the protected URL which incorporates your username and password:
http://USERNAME:[email protected]/secretfolder
For example, if the username were Bobby
and the password were tables
:
http://Bobby:[email protected]/secretfolder
Firefox will ask for confirmation before sending the username and password.
Be warned: Using this method means that anyone with access to your bookmarks will be able to log in. Your credentials would be stored in plain text just like any other bookmark.
This is not Firefox-specific: it should work in any web browser.
