Form & Addresses maintained

Post by BruceAWittmeier »

In the dialog box for Privacy & Security/Browser Privacy -- saved addresses -- the phone number automatically converts to +1XXX###XXXX format. This fails on some merchants websites. Almost always the +1 (international) must be removed and only the raw AC and phone should be used. Any fix or has this changed in later versions of FF?
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.

I've had the "automatically fill in addresses in forms" box checked ever since it appeared in Preferences.
FF has a dozen or so variants of my address stored, that I've typed into various forms. My FF location is and always has been en-US.
Never once has FF automatically filled in any of them.
