tag doesn`t work

I made the changes to avoid this annoying behavior:

1. Remove the name and the id of the password input
2. Put a class in the input (ex.: passwordInput )

(So far, Chrome wont put the saved password on the input, but the form is now broken)

Finally, to make the form work, put this code to run when the user click the submit button, or whenever you want to trigger the form submittion:

var sI = $(".passwordInput")[0];
$(sI).attr("id", "password");
$(sI).attr("name", "password");

In my case, I used to hav id="password" name="password" in the password input, so I put them back before trigger the submition.
