Password Managers Are Confused by Cogent Webapp

[DapperMongoose]

Describe the bug

When I selected a text box on the Cogent documents page Bitwarden attempted to display its dialogue. However it did not display in the correct location, instead appearing in the top left corner. Additionally it became stuck in the corner after I took the screenshot. Unclear if the second part is a Cogent bug or a browser/DE/Screenshot Tool issue.

Browser: Firefox 133.0.3 (64-bit) OS: Pop!_OS

How to reproduce

Install BitWarden Click one of the input boxes on https://www.cogentcore.org/core/widgets/containers/context-menus

I had a couple of cases where it didn't appear and multiple cases where it did. Try a couple times.

I was also seeing the add-on pop up when the texteditor elements were selected on this page.

Thank you for reporting this. I also use bitwarden, but I cannot reproduce this issue. I can see why it would happen though. We use a hidden HTML <input> element to capture input and trigger appropriate virtual keyboards when a user focuses on a text field or text editor. We set the type of the input element based on the element, so it should actually correctly detect when you are using a password input, but there is no current mechanism for it to go in the right place (although we could theoretically implement that at some point).

What happens when you unlock your account in that popup? Does it still show up? Does it show suggestions? Can you try the password text field on the text fields page? Thank you!

When logged in I do not see it coming up on the context menus field.

I DO see the bottom corner of a menu with the "Manage Passwords" button on it come up on the password field on the text fields page, but only after I press backspace or enter text and then press backspace.

I couldn't get a screenshot of the latter, it appears that the menu is camera shy.

I wonder if the reason it's not visible when logged in is because the menu is actually anchored up off screen so it needs a longer box for it to peek down into view?

Thank you for that information. Unfortunately bitwarden is down for me now, which is causing problems with trying to debug this. I will experiment with varied styling of the input element after it is back up again.
