GMail Auto-complete sometimes fails I see gmail autocomplete sometimes failing, sometimes succeeding in Safari 3. Sadly, I don't have much more information than that at present.
<rdar://5695606>
In what way is it failing? Missing suggestions, inability to choose a particular suggestion, or something else?
Sorry, I was vague. You type" ap@ (and it shows you the autocomplete dialog) but if you try and click on any result, the dialog goes away and it does not complete. ap@<tab> seems to work much of the time. I'm not sure if these are two separate issues: when <tab> fails vs. when clicking fails. IIRC, if clicking fails, tab will always fail.
Thanks - it's different than the radar mentioned in comment 1. It would be great if you could test with a nightly. And I assume you are using the "new" Gmail, right?

Auto-complete no longer works on Yahoo Mail (I'm using OS X Leopard, plus 3rd party SAFT, which provides a work-around for the Auto-complete function). This function last worked on build 30966.

Adding to this thread since it relates to the Auto-Complete function: Auto-complete no longer works on Yahoo Mail log-in (I'm using OS X Leopard, plus 3rd party SAFT, which provides a work-around for the Auto-complete function). This function last worked correctly on build 30966. Subsequent builds to the present fail to allow the auto-complete to function. This may be something SAFT ultimately has to address, however, it seems coding changes in these new builds have somehow deactivated a 3rd party add-on from overriding a web sites block. I suspect the same will be true for bank sites etc.
(In reply to comment #1) > <rdar://5695606> > <rdar://5695606> is now fixed although it only focused on auto completing with <tab> or <enter>or other keyboard commands. <rdar://problem/5683246> is now tracking this issue solely wrt mouse clicks.

Which revision was this? searching trac did not find 5695606. I doubt this was a Safari-only change, or?
Spoofing 3.1 as 2.0.4 showed that the mouse-click did complete the address. I believe this is probably some old Safari-only code running on Google's side that just needs to be removed.
