      Hi all. I am enjoying Opera 22 so far, so much better than 15!

      But when I browse sites where I have a login, the usernames and passwords are already filled in. I don't like this and want the fields blank(like in Firefox). I would like to be able to type the first letter of my username, and then the entire username and password fills automatically, like in Firefox. Possible?

      Thanks in advance.

        Ok, found the solution.

        Settings -> Privacy and Security -> uncheck "Enable auto-filling of forms on webpages"

          I spoke too soon.

          Some sites still auto-fill the details. I don't like when this happens on sites where the username/password fields are on the home page, already filled, and a user doesn't even need to click on a login button to be taken to a login screen.

            Clear cookies for those sites and untick the 'Remember Me' box located on the sites login page.

              The problem still remains. Thanks for your reply though. 🙂
