It's a bit hard to describe, but when I try to log into my account on GPX (GTS+ is working fine obviously), it tells me I have the wrong password, and then in the second email/password input bar in the main part of the page that pops up, it added a whole bunch of characters. So for example, what it would be is like:
I enter this into the top of the page: E-mail: someone@example.com Password: sample (though the "sample" password would be only showing the dots) and I hit enter. Then, in the login bar in the header, it shows: E-mail: someone@example.com Password: ****** (sample) But in the new login bar that shows up under the "no user with that email and password combo" error, it shows: E-mail: someone@example.com Password: ******************** For some reason, no matter what I try, it still adds those extra characters to the password input. Thanks for your time. EDIT: Looking in firefox's saved passwords list after saving the autochanged password. it would appear it is filling my email into the password slot. I don't know how it's happening, but that info could be helpful... This post has been edited by AuraMasterNeal: Aug 13 2013, 07:49 PM -------------------- I joined this site on July 7th, 2009.

I'm no expert at all, but since firefox isn't among the four browsers GPX works best in (according to the info in the bottom right corner of every page there, that's Chrome, Safari 6 and up, IE 10 and up, and Opera 15 and up), have you tried using another browser?

Sounds like a bug with Firefox's password manager if that's the case, yup yup.

Thought I'd add to this rather than start a new thread. I've been getting this too. If I type in my password wrongly, the password field on the following page has my email filled in (as in the OP's case). If I type my password in correctly I have no issues logging in, so it's not that the browser is appending anything before/while submitting.
I'm on Chrome ("Version 29.0.1547.76 m" says my 'About') so it's not a FF problem. I suppose it's not serious because it's not really affecting anything, but thought you'd like to know it might be a site error rather than browser as previously thought. -------------------- |
