Set global form autocomplete suggestion

more options

I want to set a list of common entries to appear in drop-down menu for every form from every site.

Example: I have two e-mails (pintassilgo@mymail.com, pintfirefox@secondmail.com) and two common usernames (e.g. pintassilgo, pintfirefox). I'd like that when I type "p" in any form of any site, the drop-down menu suggest these autocompletes: "pintassilgo@mymail.com", "pintfirefox@secondmail.com", "pintassilgo" and "pintfirefox".

On the subject see...

Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms

... and let us know if it helped.

This link talks about per-site auto form fill, I wanna know if there is a global solution, for all sites.

Like in Opera 12. I'm switching from Opera to Firefox and I miss this feature.

Maybe use this extension:

Hmmm... This is a reasonable alternative. Memorizing a shortcut key for each entry is the hard part. If there's nothing better, maybe I'll use it. Thanks.

There are form fill extensions that you can look at (do a search on the Add-ons website).

I've tested many extensions.

With Clippings I need to memorize a shortcut key for each entry; with Form History Control I can add entries to autocomplete drop-down menu by field name, but not for ALL fields, whatever the field name.
