Opera for Windows does not ask to save password

A Former User

Opera for linux does ask to save the password, I followed almost all rules about browsers' algorithms to detect a login form.

I host this locally on my developing workstation and others can reach me using the local ip + port (dev is over http, not https)

Sample of form that should ask for saving credentials:

Basically there is an event.preventDefault() on the submit event of the form and the actual login process is done using socket.io

What do Chrome and Vivaldi on Windows do for the same situation? If Opera's different, I'd consider that a bug, especially since it works on Linux in Opera.

Any difference if you use <input type="submit"... instead of a button?
