Posted January 13, 2005 – 11:51 pm by Yakov Shafranovich in TechnologyDo you like the Opera form autofill feature? What about FireFox’s or Google Toolbar’s? IANAL, but it might be patented … by Microsoft, Apple and Intel. Take a look at the following three patents:
6,651,217 – “System and method for populating forms with previously used data values”
6,192,380 -”Automatic web based form fill-in”
5,666,502 – “Graphical user interface using historical lists with field classes”
