html - Form field names used by personal data auto-fill in browsers (Safari, Opera)

Question

I'm looking for complete list of form field names (<input name="…">) that are recognized by auto-fill functions in major browsers.

Here are some I've found to work in Safari using trial-and-error:

• email
• Ecom_ReceiptTo_Postal_Name_First
• Ecom_ReceiptTo_Postal_Name_Last
• first-name
• firstname
• last-name
• lastname
• full-name
• birthday
• company
• jobtitle
• phone
• street
• city
• country
• state (used for county outside US)
• postalcode
• zip

However I couldn't find separate field for title/honorific prefix (it's included in full name only).

Opera's Wand recognizes more or less the same names with exception of name, which requires Ecom_ReceiptTo_Postal_Name_First and Ecom_ReceiptTo_Postal_Name_Last.

I couldn't find field for mobile phone number. Haven't found way to get separate home/work fields.

There's proposal to extend autocomplete attribute to allow developers specify these explicitly.

Answer 1

I wasn't aware of the names you used. But I knew Mozilla/Netscape and IE use vcard_name attributes to guide autofill as described here.
