Shoelace: Autocomplete with saved logins not possible in `<sl-input autocomplete="on">`

[trailsnail]

Describe the bug
Is it intentional that autocomplete on inputs won't work? Login and password for example.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
native|<sl-input autocomplete="on">
-|-
Use native input in html form, select browsers saved login - the password is autofilled|Password not filled, saved logins not used
|

Expected behavior
Would be nice, if saved logins are provided and used too if clicked

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Win 10
• Browser FF Nightly

Would be nice to know, if this is a bug or a feature / expected behavior 😉

It's intended to work, and I've seen it work first hand many times. In fact, it worked so well that a composed <sl-input> inside of <sl-select> was getting autocompleted (#266). 😂

Can you post a test case?

[trailsnail]

The suggestions are shown, this is correct, but the password is not filled with the value which is stored in browser for the login field.

With <sl-input> you have to click / select the correct password entry manually from browser suggestions.

I will try to create a codepen for this later 😉

[trailsnail]

Here we go:

https://codepen.io/trailsnail-the-lessful/pen/wvWRmmK

• enter testuser in native Login and test in native password field
• submit and save credentials in browser dialog
• after that reload pen
• click into native login and select the testuser
  
• the password is filled
  
• try the same in <sl-input name="login">
  
• the suggestions appear, but on click, the password field isn't filled.
  

It seems, that the fields aren't linked to browsers saved logins

Hope this helps 🍻

Seems you are right. Thanks for investigation.

@staabm fyi

But AFAIR FF had the same issue, no?

What's this? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1629226

While searching for matching topics, the Shadow Dom seems to be responsible for many other strange behaviors 🤣

Seems this is still an issue with Safari. 😞 Guess I'll need to use a standard light DOM input for username/password fields.
