Smart Window in Firefox suggests how to fill out forms using open tabs
Mozilla is adding suggestions for filling out forms based on open tabs to the Smart Window feature in Firefox. The option appears for forms with at least four text fields, and the user can select the source tabs.
Mozilla is expanding the Smart Window feature in Firefox with suggestions for filling out online forms using information from open tabs. According to Mozilla, work history from an online portfolio or a page on LinkedIn can, for example, be used in a job application.
Clicking in a form with at least four text fields brings up the “Fill from sources” option. This shows the tabs the browser should use as sources. The user can include or exclude individual tabs, and the browser then generates suggestions for filling out the form.
Why it matters
The feature may reduce the need to manually copy information from open pages into a form. The user decides which tabs will serve as sources for the suggestions.
