Force Safari to save sites' autofill-blocked form data
Authored by: momerath on Oct 15, '04 01:26:31PM

This might be a good situation for PithHelmet 2.0's new "Machete" dynamic page modification scripting. It would probably be easier to implement.

Machete Script Kind?
Authored by: 5chm31din6 on Oct 15, '04 06:37:24PM

Yeah, but how? Is Machete expecting AppleScript? JavaScript? A shell script? I can't find any reference in the documentation other than the sentence, "Run script on the contents of the main url before it gets rendered by the browser."

Machete Script Exlanation
Authored by: msolo on Oct 15, '04 09:07:47PM

Machete runs unix-style shell scripts in perl, python or bash.

There is a sample script AllowAutofill.py that should do exactly what you want available on that page along with a brief explanation on how to install it.

PithHelmet machete
Authored by: sjk on Dec 03, '04 01:25:12PM

Yep, a PithHelmet machete script works nicely for this. I also use one to strip accesskey tags that annoyingly interfere with Emacs-style control key shortcuts during text editing, especially on several forums.
