Autofill v.25 for Firefox v1.5 - December 8, 2005
Autofill is one of the simplest form filler extensions available for Firefox. The last version released by the creators was v.2 in August 2004. This edition was originally created to only work with Firefox releases before version 1.0. I opened up the extension and made a few tweaks to enable it to work with Firefox 1.5. We have not had any bug issues since we started to test it out, but please report any in the comments or directly contact the creator. Autofill’s offical webpage is autofill.mozdev.org. If you have upgraded to Firefox v1.5 and Autofill v.2 has become a faded item in the Extensions list you can just click install on this site and it should overide the old version for your. (allow skattertech.com to install this extension or just save it)
Autofill v.2 and v.25 Feature List:
- Auto highlight of all fillable forms
- Unlimited custom profiles
- Toolbar Button
- Credit Card filler (w/ password protection)
- See the offical website for full list
Install (or save): autofill_25.xpi

Update: Autofill v0.3 Offically Released w/ Firefox 1.5 Compatibility
(Note: This site has nothing to do with the creators of Autofill and is not responsible for any damage caused by using this product. There are only few version tweaks been made to support FF v1.5. No core software content has been modified.)
Update: If the “OK” button wasn’t working it was probably because an older users session didn’t exist on you computer. To make it work read this. Install the extension provided above for Firefox 1.5. Restart Firefox and try to enter a profile if it doesen’t work do the following. Go to “C:\\” in My Compter and open the “Documents and Settings” folder. Go to the user you are currently logged onto or Administrator. Next open the “Application Data” folder. (if you can not see it enable hidden folders by going to tools > folder options… > view > advance settings > show hidden files and folders) Now open the “Mozilla” folder and the “Firefox” folder inside that. Enter the “Profiles” folder and open your profile folder. Now you should see a “prefs.js” file in there. Open the doc with NotePad or another editor and fill in your personal information in the fields shown on mozillaZine’s Forum.

This is how you can get this to work at the momment
“new version v.25 works great with FireFox 1.5! Add profile is a little weird in that you have to add a profile and enter a name then go back and choose that name and enter the information and then click OK, but it works fine.” -Dan Wilcox

Thanks for the extension update! For now, at least, this extension is still better than the actual Google Toolbar autofill options even though the Google Toolbar is now available for FireFox — and the extension is easier to use than some of the more complex AutoFill programs out there. So it’s good to have a working version of this again. Nice of you to make this compatible with the new Firefox…
(The one downside of these great open-source extensions is that after you’ve filled in all your info on an extension like this — or learned how to use it, depending on the type of extension — and then suddenly FireFox updates, the extension doesn’t update, and you have to start all over again with a new extension were you have to enter all your info all over again…. Not that we can expect instant updates to extensions from prorgammers that are making them for free for public use, but it’s this sort of thing that will keep FireFox from ever being as widespread as IE or even it’s Netscape sibling.)

Same as above: after selecting and filling out profile, the OK button does nothing. I can only close the window and lose all the info and the profile.

Roboform is so much better. It also integrates with Firefox and there’s a portable version so that you can take it with you on a USB key.
