Bug Description
When logging in to a web site with a username and password, Firefox pops up a dialog box asking if the user would like to have Firefox remember the password. However, the dialog is unresponsive to anything except cancelling.
"Would you like to remember the password for 'foo' at 'somedomain.com' ?
When pressing the button 'remember', Firefox should store the username and password. It isn't doing so.

To be more clear, the 'remember' button does nothing, not even removing the dialog box.
