Description-en: extension to manage form history
An extension to View and Manage all form data that has been saved by the
web browser giving you full control over what is stored, what is cleaned up
or not, and when to perform a cleanup. This extension even allows you to
control selectively for which webpages form history data is stored (either
blacklist or whitelist). Also stores text from editor fields as you type
for easy recovery in case of disaster.
.
This extension enables you to selectively delete privacy sensitive
information without having to delete the entire history. With the help of
powerful regular expressions, information can simply and effectively be
retrieved, edited or deleted. Use it to correct misspelled entries, get rid
of sensitive data like private banking info or delete passwords that were
entered into the wrong formfield.
.
This plugin also stores text from editor fields as you type, so you never
have to loose your work when disaster strikes. Recover your lost work after
session timeouts, network failures, browser crashes, power failures and all
other things that will destroy the hard work you just put into writing that
important email, essay or blog post.
.
Form History Control can filter data either by keyword, active page, active
field or cleanup criteria. Powerful advanced search options allows you to
find information by name, value, timeframe, usage or host. Optional regular
expressions provide a very effective way to retrieve any information you
might look for. The advanced search option comes with a list of predefined
regular expressions which can be altered or extended to fit any need.
.
The extension also offers the possibility to export/import form history
data and configuration settings, allowing you to exchange data between
multiple browser configurations or import history data into your own
application of choice.
.
Form History Control can also be used to easily autofill textfields in a
web form using either the most used or the last used formhistory data.
