[QUOTE="krs, post: 1837641, member: 67742"] Jake, The problem on Brave that I'm trying to describe has nothing to do with entering one's name and address in that Brave preference area you are describing. That part of Brave doesn't work either, but I will get to that in a minute. The problem I'm describing only happens on websites which have a field that gets populated by information from another website over the net. Back in my original post about that, I included a website where one gets that problem: [url=https://www.virginmobile.ca/en/internet/order-internet.html]Order Home Internet - Virgin Mobile Canada[/url] Trouble is that this is specifically a Canadian website, so I'm not sure what you will get. But assuming it opens the same way as for me, you should see a field in the middle to type in your address. For me it shows: Example: 123-101....... If I type in 808, which is my house number, on Firefox and all the other browsers, I will get a selection of addresses starting with 808. And as I keep typing the rest of my address, at some point, well before I typed all of it, my address shows up and you just click on it to see it in the field where you were typing. Then you go to the next page and that address will be pre-populated but in a different manner. The last step is then the check. You can try that first with FireFox or Chrome or Safari to see what [B]should[/B] happen Then try the same thing with Brave and you never get any options when you type in 808 (or whatever) And if you type in the whole address in that field (on the page where I provided the link), and then go to the next page - all the address fileds on that page are blank. But even if I retype everything on that second page and do a check, I still get the wrong information. Now going back to what you are doing, filling in the name and address in the Brave Preference area. I have done that, but I don't see how that can possibly work - Just for a starter, in the preference area my first name and my last name are typed into a single field. Most websites that I use require separate fileds for that, like this one by Via Rail that I just used today. There is no way Brave can populate this from the information in "Save and fill addresses" However, once you fill out each of the individual fields on the Via Rail website, Brave will fill that in next time, but it will not be the information from the "Save and fill addresses" from the Brave preference area. That autofill is totally different than the first issue with the Virgin website Via Rail address template is here, I get none of the info that I saved in the Brave "Save and fill addresses" populated.
