<p dir="auto">I host this locally on my developing workstation and others can reach me using the local ip + port (dev is over http, not https)</p>
<p dir="auto">Sample of form that should ask for saving credentials:</p>
<p dir="auto">Basically there is an <code>event.preventDefault()</code> on the submit event of the form and the actual login process is done using <code>socket.io</code></p>

If Opera's different, I'd consider that a bug, especially since it works on Linux in Opera.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any difference if you use <code>&lt;input type="submit"...</code> instead of a button?</p>
