Filling In Routine Form Entries Automatically

Many Web sites (such as e-commerce sites) ask you to type information about yourself in specified spaces called "forms." Instead of typing your information in every time, you cause AutoComplete to see a list of choices based on previously entered information. When you begin to type information into a form, a list automatically appears. For example, after typing a couple of letters of your first name, you'll see your complete name in a list that drops down from the address space. From that list, you highlight the information you want and then select it by clicking or by pressing ENTER.
