I'm running on Win7. I have KeePass 2.17 installed and KeePassHttp 1.0.4.0 plug-in working.

Running FireFox 8.0, I have current PassIFox and Hostname in Titlebar plug-ins installed.

Running Chrome , I have current ChromeIPass v1.0.6 plug-in installed.

For many websites, both FF and Chrome plug-ins work fine, e.g. eBay.com, newegg.com, and accounts.google.com

BUT ... for some websites I'm still having problems

1) on Amazon.com click 'Hello Sign-in' link to get login screen
Login works fine on FF (minor issue: the Auto-Type Enter doesn't do the trick and I have to mouse click the Sign-in button)

But on Chrome it only fills password field, user name is left blank. I do get pop-up notification that Chrome is getting credentials from KeePassHttp.

2) https://chaseonline.chase.com/Logon.aspx
For this URL, Chrome does nice auto login but on FF both name and password are blank. Hotkey fills both properly

3) kayak.com
Works great on Chrome. For FF, needs hotkey or click in password field

I'm not asking someone to debug all my URLs but I need some guidance ...

A) Is matching only done with Title entry of KeePass?

B) Do wildcards work with KeePassHttp and browser plug-ins? I've tried different KeePass entries for Title, URL, and Auto-Key sequence but I'm confused about how the match is made. I tried "TitleName*" wildcard but seems not to work. Full, long Titles seem to match best.

C) Is the URL used to match, too, or is it only used for URLs>Open ?

D) for FF, is Host-name-in-Titlebar recommend or does it break more than if fixes?

E) When {Username}{Tab}{Password}{Enter} doesn't work and login screen seems to want a mouse-click on a login button, is there a way to script that in Auto-Key?

Thank you
