Abstract
It is determined whether the URL of a screen displayed by a web browser matches the URL included in a response to an obtainment request. If the URL of the screen displayed by the web browser is determined to match the URL included in the response to the obtainment request, a user currently using an information processing apparatus is a user permitted to use an autocomplete function, and the screen displayed in the web browser can be trusted, a script is loaded in the web browser and executed. The web browser carries out the autocomplete through this script.
Claims19
An information processing apparatus, including a web browser, that can connect to a web server, the apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to each other and cooperating to act as:
- an obtainment unit that obtains location information indicating at least one location of user interface information expressing at least one user interface for entering first user information for authentication requested by the web server;
- and
- a setting unit that, if supplementary information entered previously through the user interface based on the at least one user interface information and associated with second user information that is user information of a user logged into the information processing apparatus is saved, sets the supplementary information as a value of the first user information entered through the at least one user interface in the case where the web browser has received the user interface information on the basis of the location information,
- wherein each of the first and second user information include a user ID and a password, and
- wherein a user interface screen for entering the user ID and a user interface screen for entering the password are screens different from each other.
An information processing system comprising, in a connected state:
- a web server;
- an authentication web server;
- a form data management server;
- and
- an information processing apparatus, including a web browser, that can connect to a web server, the apparatus comprising:
- an obtainment unit that obtains location information indicating at least one location of user interface information expressing at least one user interface for entering first user information for authentication requested by the web server;
- and
- a setting unit that, if supplementary information entered previously through the at least one user interface based on the user interface information and associated with second user information that is user information of a user logged into the information processing apparatus is saved, sets the supplementary information as a value of the first user information entered through the at least one user interface in the case where the web browser has received the user interface information on the basis of the location information,
- wherein each of the first and second user information include a user ID and a password, and
- wherein a user interface screen for entering the user ID and a user interface screen for entering the password are screens different from each other.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium on which is stored a program for causing a computer, including a web browser, that can connect to a web server, to function as:
- an obtainment unit that obtains location information indicating at least one location of user interface information expressing at least one user interface for entering first user information for authentication requested by the web server;
- and
- a setting unit that, if supplementary information entered previously through the at least one user interface based on the user interface information and associated with second user information that is user information of a user logged into the computer is saved, sets the supplementary information as a value of the user information entered through the at least one user interface in the case where the web browser has received the user interface information on the basis of the location information,
- wherein each of the first and second user information include a user ID and a password, and
- wherein a user interface screen for entering the user ID and a user interface screen for entering the password are screens different from each other.
An information processing method executed by an information processing apparatus, the apparatus including a web browser and being able to connect to a web server, the method comprising:
- obtaining location information indicating at least one location of user interface information expressing at least one user interface for entering first user information for authentication requested by the web server;
- and
- if supplementary information entered previously through the at least one user interface based on the user interface information and associated with second user information that is user information of a user logged into the information processing apparatus is saved, setting the supplementary information as a value of the user information entered through the at least one user interface in the case where the web browser has received the user interface information on the basis of the location information,
- wherein each of the first and second user information include a user ID and a password, and
- wherein a user interface screen for entering the user ID and a user interface screen for entering the password are screens different from each other.
