This was one annoying issue to hunt down... :P
When editing album properties, Firefox keeps asking about remembering the password. I kept saying No. One time, I clicked Yes by accident since it was the default.
After that, the keyword field would show the same keyword in every album. This did not affect IE.
I did two things to confirm that it is this field. I deleted the password entry in FF's password manager. I also changed the name of the field. However, it's not enough to change the field name, someone with better knowledge would need to make changes to maintain the data connection.
Hopefully having a different field name will stop the password manager prompts in FF.
In modifyalb.php, change
<input type="password" name="$name" value="$value" class="textinput" maxlength="32" size="34">
to
<input type="password" name="$name" value="$value" class="textinput" maxlength="32" size="34" autocomplete="off">
I have no idea if autocomplete is html 4.01 or xhtml compliant, but it works. If it isn't, then use type="text" instead of type="password".
I know it seems strange, but the issue is with the keyword field, not password. :)
Not for me. Once I changed the password field for the album manager, my password manager stopped popping up.
I'm not using the album password though. Here's what I did.
Edit keyword.
Clicked yes to saving password although I made no change to password.
After that, all albums showed the same keyword. However, it's not in the html source. So it's FF's password autofill feature.
Neither am I. It doesn't matter if the field is empty or not. When you submit a change, the type="password" gets Firefox's attention, which causes the password manager to pop up. Adding autocomplete="off" makes FF ignore the password field. I Googled for the Firefox password issue and found this little trick.
Thanks, that seemed to help. I had to delete the entry in password manager. The keyword was showing up as the username in the manager.
The page still validated. :)
Sorry, I should have told you I had to delete that entry in my password manager also.
issue solved then?

Apparently yes, so I'm marking as "fixed".
