I dont use roboform and never have. I did look into it, but Im not paying for a service to fill out a form for me (I know its free for a bit, but Im not prepared to get used to it and have to live without it :rotfl:)

I did download lastpass, but haven't managed to do anything with it. Not sure what I need to do now, but Ive not had time to look at it. Im not busy today at all so might have a look later.

But for now I fill out my forms manually :eek:, most of the time it remembers my info and its quick, but I am a fast touch typer so its not a problem to fill out manually anyway.

Just FYI, I use Roboform and it's not just free for a bit, I have never paid. As long as you don't have more than 2 "identities" you're OK. So I have one with my details and one to tick the no thanks boxes and that's it. I don't use the passcards or whatever, rely on cookies and firefox remembering my logins for those with no problems

when you go to sign up to roboform you get an option to have the free version or the paid one -the paid one has more features but the free one is fine for form filling

Did you ever get a response to this? Just curious as I won quite a few times with goodtoknow when entering manually, but not a bean since I started using Roboform a few months ago! Might be a coincidence but just read T&Cs & wondered if maybe this is why..
Thanks

Anecdotally, I don't think Roboform always triggers the "data changed" event on a form field.

Also, I've seen instances where, upon submitting a Roboform filled form, I get an error message to the effect of "id is invalid". But when the form is filled out manually, there is no error.

That makes me think Roboform actually changed a hidden field value that the form relies on.

I should be able to knock up a test for this

Is there a list anywhere of forms that behave badly with Roboform, rather than me just searching Game Over for complaints?

thinking about this I've won less since I started using robofom. When I get back from my hols I will go back to using chrome filler & see if I start winning more
