@burnout426 Thanks for your answer.

Chrome does the same.

I checked the attributes with "inspect". The type for the second and third entry field is set to attribute="password". The problem might be that the third field (for the real password) is named id ="passwd1", while the second one (for the one-time RSA number) is named id="passwd".

So obviously the browser is led to think the field named "passwd" is the password.
Dang. Seems to be a tricky one.
Maybe it´s useless to find a general solution just by logic.

Perhaps... if there is more than one password-field, the browser could either ask the user, which one to save or just save all password-fields?

If you want to have a look at the page I´m talking about: it´s www/vapp/vkb/de
(slashes are dots, of course).

I think it´s a standard citrix login screen.

@burnout426
Refused connection? Oh. Don´t know why.

The name field for both password-fields is "a" followed by a long number of about 15 digits each.
Both have autovomplete = "off". But the first (one-time) passwors is saved anyway.

Dang.
Of course normally there is only one password-field on each page.
That´s handled very well by opera.

On my companie´s page there´s a kind of two-factor identification:
The password I know (which I´d like to save) and the one-time transaction number I get from a special app on my mobile (which is useless to save.
I think there would be no problem if the passwort field would be the first password-field,
but alas it´s the second.

So I think Opera can´t handle this at the moment.

Is there a way to suggest the idea of the the dialogue-window to the dev-team?
(if there is more than one password-field, ask the user, which one to save)

Thanks for your help!

@burnout426 I tried the extension, but no use.

Do you know how to make suggestions to the dev-team?

@burnout426 Thx.
I just made post there.

@sgunhouse: good idea.
That´s a step closer to what I mean.

I can save the password in the third field this way.
When I got the page the next time, I can recall the password by left-clicking on the third field and choosing my userid. Does work, but it needs two mouse-clicks.

I´d like opera to fill in my userid and the passwort right away after opening the page.

That would be the ease of use I´m used to in opera since long tim.

@sgunhouse said in User dialogue in case of multiple password fields:

I'm kind of curious how that is supposed to work. Where I work, you submit your username and password and they text you the second code; I'm not sure how your phone is supposed to give you a code before you've told them who you are.

First I start an app "RSA SecurID" on my smartphone. After entering a 4 digit PIN I get a eight-digit number, which is valid for one minute.
Then on my desktop I open my company´s login page.
There are three entry fields. first one for my userid, second one for the eight-digit one-time key and third one for my regular password.
Opera offers to save the password, but it does save the one-time key in the second field.

I suggest that in case of multiple password fields on one page, there should be a dialog box asking the user which password to save.

Hello,
on my company´s login page there are two password-entry fields for two-key authentification. First one is for a smartphone-generated one-time key, second one is the regular password.

When saving the password, opera saves the one-time key, not the real password.
(Both fields are of type "password", the IDs are "passwd" and "passwd1" and the names are random)

I suggest that in case of multiple password-entry fields, opera should open a dialog box to ask the user which password to save.

I think pages with more than one password for two-key authentification will become more and more.
Opera would be the first browser to address this problem.
