I was afraid you would say that. i like chrome since it has the whole bookmark sink and other do hickies. I heard firefox's been laggin behind.

I'd say it's the total opposite. Chrome is so damn buggy I'm half tempted to block Chrome users and make the site tell people to switch browsers if they're using it to something else. I'm tired of making patches for things that aren't broken just so they'd work in a broken release of Chrome.

The parent bug report is marked fixed. Is this really a problem with current builds of Chromium?

@Koby, can you list problems with Chromium? Or perhaps list a few things that don't work in Chromium, but work in Firefox?

Chrome 37 for example broke things with the themes which had to be edited to make them display properly despite the code not being broken and displaying fine for all other browsers. SkinBox/IPBFocus & MoodKiller pointed this out and supplied an edit to solve. It wasn't anything massive, but it's just one thing on the ever growing list of work-arounds to make things work properly. It was bad enough when IE was popular and webmasters had to make patches to things not broken; but now Chrome is popular and it's just as bad if not worse than IE ever was in this regard.

I'm not seriously one to seriously block an entire browser from accessing us though so have no fear, lol. I think the whole copy/paste bug in IE is bigger than all the Chrome bugs combined actually.

The problem persists. the bug wasnt fixed and i tried a work around with having firefox saved the password(which it did correctly) and then import it to chrome. This lead to another bug which is that chrome seems not to import passwords form other browsers.

I wouldn't call that a bug. That's just a feature it's missing compared to others.

naw it is a bug. it used to be able to do that and now it doesnt apparently!

Just because it "use" to do something doesn't mean it isn't a feature that was removed. Unless they stated somewhere that they didn't remove the feature and it is in fact a bug with the release; I'd assume an old feature that doesn't work was likely removed. A lot of times features not used much get removed to condense software.

not to argue. just to learn but how can it be removed if it clearly says import from mozilla firefox as an import option? btw i imported the saved password from IE and it worked but when i logged in to the site chrome updated the password with the encryted key!

Okay then. I was just assuming either way. I've never installed Chrome and never will install that trackerware.

The problem persists.

Which version of Chromium are you using?

the bug wasnt fixed and i tried a work around with having firefox saved the password(which it did correctly) and then import it to chrome.

The real solution is to not use Chromium's password management.

I've never installed Chrome and never will install that trackerware.

The bug report specifically states Chromium, so I assume we are talking about Chromium.
