Description

Request for Mozilla Position on an Emerging Web Specification

Other information

The HTML spec currently does not clarify the necessary conditions when a user agent is allowed to autofill a group of fields. We propose a solution that defines a default grouping concept, and also allows the user agent to safely fill frame-transcending forms which are common with payment forms.
