[Konqueror] autofill username/password?

I must be blind - konqueror asks if it should save username and passord, I tell it yes, it should, but upon my next visit to that same site I have no idea how to get it to autofill the info. Anyone? Please? I am very happy with KDE overall, but this is one thing I'm not pleased with. Thanks for any clues!

Oh, one more point: on at least one site (the one I use the most, of course!) it asks every time I open the page... seems to not have stored information the previous time :(

Your username and password are bound to a certain URL. Some sites have some data in their URL's which differ everytime you visit that page. That way KWallet does not recognize the URL and does not autofill.

There is also a bug with Kubuntu 6.10 and kwalletmanager.
If you are using Kubuntu try to load the updates.

If it's not fixed, you can try the following which helped me to store some passwords:

go to kwalletmanager properties,
deactivate automatic start,
restart KDE
activate atomatic start again.

Ah, thanks for the tips.

At this point it seems to be ok, and I found that TAB seems to make it fill in when it knows what to fill in with. Perhaps I got the right updates recently without knowing it. I am using kubuntu, so that bug might be what was wrong.
