Description

When you don't want an autoconnect by the cookie, (this for example because you are testing the product with various usernames which correspond to various usersgroups), then you let Firefox to fill automatically the password.

When the password is sent by Firefox this closes the popup-form. You must re-open it to validate.

If you are experienced you are able to understand what appends, but I receiced mail from users saying I am unable to login.

Further, sometimes the login_scr is displayed, and people think that they must give their username and their e-mail and the password. This because of the template.
In fact it is either the username or the e-mail address.

I look the form into the XXX.tpl.php without finding anything to explain the phenomenon.

Solution

See around which opens to the solution which will appear here :
<not already done>

Workaround

The problem comes from the navigator it exits or not, with :
1- MSIE 7 : when using only the "list" for username field the window closes
2- Firefox : when using the "list" for username the field is filled and after the password generates the popup close
3- Google Chrome : completely different way to manage the automatically filled fields : No Problem at all
4- OPERA(old version) : another way to fill the field (the ctrl-enter) which functions even not clean.

Surely a known problem : I will ask to mozilla team, for IE it is another problem.
We should develop something else, knowing the nature of the problem we could develop another version of login popup which will functions in all situations
