The change password from should apply the suggestions in "Use autocomplete attributes" and "Use hidden fields for implicit information" in https://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/create-amazing-password-forms.

I just made a pull request with my suggested change and ask if it looks ok or not 😺

What Are Autocomplete Attributes?

Autocomplete attributes help for example 1pasSword to see the text fields:

  • “current-password” and
  • “new-password”

With autocomplete in POW! a customers 1pasSword app is rescued from for example accidentally autofilling the wrong pasSword into our “new-password” text field. See a detailed write-up with examples.

(Fields that are not passwords, but should be obscured, such as credit card numbers, may also have a type="password" attribute, but should contain the relevant autocomplete attribute, such as "cc-number" or "cc-csc".)

Questions

Am I getting closer to something?
How will I see in my localhost if autocomplete attributes are actually working?
Do I need to get the 1pasSword Chrome plugin?
