My eBay autologin

Last update on Sep 21, 2005

Automatically submits the My eBay login form (and checks the "Keep me signed in" box) if your username and password were automatically filled in (typically by the Firefox password manager). This script only logs in when necessary; direct your bookmark to http://my.ebay.com/ and the script should take care of the rest, as long as Firefox is set to remember (and autofill) your log-in details. Also recommended: http://www.userscripts.org/scripts/show/2389.

Updated for Firefox 1.5 compatibility.

Goes well with Lars Formellas "My eBay auto-forward script":http://www.userscripts.org/scripts/show/2389.

This is one of the most useful scripts out there. Cheers.

Just letting you know I've modified your script to work with AOL Login pages. Let me know if you want it removed or changed. Thanks.

Thanks for an excellent script. I've uploaded an edited version of this that does the same for last.fm too -- though do let me know if you'd prefer it removed/altered!

Doesn't work for me. The UserID and Password are immediatly filled in as normal, but the "Keep me signed in ..." box never get checked and the page just sits there. Firefox 1.5 and GM 0.6.4.

Broken in 1.5/0.6.3 for me as well. It appears Firefox 1.5 autofills the password AFTER the userscript has run. Not sure how to best solve this - it doesn't appear to trigger the onchange event. Will probably post an update later today.

good idea - hate having to constantly log in to ebay - but it doesn't appear to be working for me under 1.5RC2 and GM 0.6.3 - is it because FF isn't remebering my password I wonder ?

does what it says on the tin....

(change ebay.com to ebay.* for other ebays - .de, .co.uk etc.)
