Firefox does not save login ID
I like to save my ID for sites requiring login. I never save the password, only the ID. Not sure what combination of setting allows to do this Settings that I tried: Remember Browsing History >0 And on custom clear settings: Clear Passwords Clear form data It appears that when I set "remember..." to 0 days then my ID disappears next day. I do not check Clear Passwords and Clear Form Date on assumption that those two showl control it, but that makes no difference.

In Firefox 3.5 and later 'Form and Search history' entries expire just like the regular 'Browser History'.
The pref browser.history_expire_days determines when history items expire and also effects form and search data.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days (180) (also affects saved form data)
Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear "Form & Search History"

Disable the password manager and use save form data to store the user name.
- Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: [ ] "Remember passwords for sites"
- Tools > Options > Privacy > History: [X] "Remember search and form history"
To see all the History and Cookie settings, select:
- Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
What about setting for "Remember Browsing History"? Do I need this to be anything other that 0 days?

Thank you. That was the missing part.
Just for people who step about this topic and have all checkmarks enabled:
FF does not save your username/password IF the form is not submitted by a submit button, i.e. like this:
<form..><input ...> <a href... onclick='login()' class=loginbutton>Loginbutton</a> </form> .
In this case, firefox does not offer the save password option, nor does it save the entries made. That's because it's not a form submit at all, but it looks like one to the user.
@Webdeveloper:
In that case exchange the "<A>..</A>" with something like this: "<input type=submit class=loginbutton onClick='return login();' name=submit value='login'>"
