Interface nsIFormFillControllerType

nsIFormFillController is an interface for controlling form fill behavior on HTML documents. Any number of docShells can be controller concurrently. While a docShell is attached, all HTML documents that are loaded within it will have a focus listener attached that will listen for when a text input is focused. When this happens, the input will be bound to the global nsIAutoCompleteController service.
