    • autoSavedLoginGuid: string

      A string guid value for the old login to be removed if the changes match it to a different login

      A string guid value for the login which was autofilled into the form

    • possibleValues: any

      Contains values from anything that we think, but are not sure, might be a username or password. Has two properties, 'usernames' and 'passwords'.

    Returns nsIPromptInstance

promptToChangePasswordWithUsernames

  • Ask the user if they want to change the password for one of multiple logins, when the caller can't determine exactly which login should be changed. If the user consents, modifyLogin() will be called.

    Parameters

      The browser of the webpage request that triggered the prompt.

    • logins: invalid

      An array of existing logins.

    • aNewLogin: nsILoginInfo
