When I use multiple usernames for the same website, Firefox remembers the usernames. In Firefox for Windows, I could delete these saved usernames by highlighting the username I wanted to delete (arrow down) and hitting the delete button. This does not work on my Mac. How do I delete usernames I don't want saved?

That function is working fine. I am talking about usernames, though, not passwords. Example: I open the Facebook login page. When I click on the "E-mail" box, a drop down opens that displays every e-mail address that this computer has used to log in to Facebook. I would like to delete some of them. On my Windows machine, I highlighted and hit the delete button. That doesn't work on the Mac. Any idea how to do that? It ought to be simple. Thanks.
