[Bug 1506836] Re: LastPass bookmarklet not supported in ubuntu-touch browser

 

This method doesn't seem to work for me.  I select one of the links as
instructed.  It doesn't generate an error page, rather it just shows a
blank page.  When I go to the address bar it looks like most of the
javascript has been deleted, it just says
"ref);document.body.appendChild(_LP_);".

I think the address bar on this browser is too short to accept all that
javascript.  Only long-pressing on a link and selecting "Bookmark link"
works.

So I don't think this bug is ready to be closed as Invalid yet.

There really should be some way of inspecting and manually editing
bookmarks, not just adding or removing them.  If that was implemented,
this bug could be closed.

Title:
  LastPass bookmarklet not supported in ubuntu-touch browser

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  LastPass offers a bookmarklet feature, a little piece of javascript
  you can run from the address bar which fills in passwords for you.
  This is the only convenient way to use a password manager like this on
  a device that isn't natively supported by their plugins.  I used to
  use this feature all the time on my Nokia N900.

  The way it should work is:

  * Log in to the LastPass website, and in the "Tools" menu select "Bookmarklets"
  * Long press on "LastPass Fill!" and tap "Bookmark link"
  * Navigate to a website to log in to
  * On the address bar, clear the address and type "lastpass"
  * Bookmarklet will be suggested as a bookmark with a star icon (it starts "android:lpfill...")
  * Tap that bookmark
  * It should execute the javascript and fill in username and password (after authenticating with LastPass)

  In fact after tapping the bookmark it does nothing.
