Next, change \"PASSWORD\" with your password. Save it as a bookmark / favorite and you\'re ready to go!

Dirk Wed, 19 Mar 2008 15:25:46 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc1437 Like the article said, the password is indeed located on your computer as plain text. When send, it\'s not plain text anymore. The only problem here is, that if anyone knows that you\'re using this technique, they could open your bookmarks and read the not-encrypted password. Marco Thu, 20 Mar 2008 09:18:42 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc1485 Hi. Thanks for posting this up. Works great for my gmail account. But, try as I might, I can\'t figure out how to plug the login and password stuff into a bookmark to do the same for my igoogle home page. And did I try - I\'m amazed google hasn\'t locked me out! Best I could get was the sign in page with a red \"not at this time\" message at the password field. Can you help me build an automatic sign in bookmark, if possible, for igoogle? Thanks!! Dallas E Thu, 27 Mar 2008 21:48:30 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc1555 So, how does one create a shortcut that will automatically log into the Google Apps email page? I.e: https://www.google.com/a/yourdomain.com/ Calab Mon, 07 Apr 2008 20:10:44 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc1556 You should check the names of the elements, just like my URL in the article. Replace \"Email\" and \"Passwd\" to the names of the elements (check the HTML source) and make modifications where needed. Good luck! Marco Mon, 07 Apr 2008 22:35:47 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc1634 OK... So I don\'t want to get email notifications for this topic anymore.

When the user clicks on it, it opens up a new window and I use the link from above to have their email automatically open. This works great in internet explorer but for some reason it does not work exactly the same in Firefox. When the user clicks on the button in FireFox, it will take them to the google login page and place their username in the box, but not login automatically. If they click on the address bar and then hit enter it will then log them into gmail. I am not sure why it stops in FireFox and the extra step is needed. I don\'t want them to be able to see the information in the address bar because everyones password is the same for purposes of the link working in my web app. Sorry if this doesn\'t make complete sense but any help would be appreciated.

Would be nice to just give a link to people to pin new locations without each person having to create an account. zealous Sun, 19 Apr 2009 22:49:05 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc5891 If you have multiple GMail accounts, and you recently logged into one of them, this bookmark will not log you into another. I\'ve hacked at this slightly and written a URL that will log you out of one GMail account and then into another. You can read the details at the URL below. http://www.joeldare.com/wiki/google_gmail_bookmark_that_logs_in Or, just use this: https://www.google.com/accounts/Logout?continue=https%3a%2f%2fwww.google.com%2faccounts%2fServiceLoginAuth%3fcontinue%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fmail.google.com%2fgmail%26service%3dmail%26Email%3dUSER%26Passwd%3dPASS%26null%3dSign%2bin Joel Dare Sat, 02 May 2009 02:16:03 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc5897 Hi!

G Sun, 06 Sep 2009 11:04:40 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc10862 I have enabled autologin for my gmail account but sometimes the URL which google/gmail uses to implement becomes too long and gmail never logs in. I put this hint into a favorite and now have something I can use as a backup in case the gmail generated URL becomes too long Dick Tue, 08 Sep 2009 16:32:36 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc10864 hmmm, that didn\'t work, it logged me into google but it comes up with a page suggesting I sign up for a gmail account. (I log into my google account with a myname@NONGOOGLEDOMAIN.com email address). Any way to get around that? ryan Tue, 08 Sep 2009 22:10:35 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc11828 It was great tip, but it dont work anymore.... :( ja Wed, 07 Oct 2009 10:37:15 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc11896 It\'s a pitty... Since a few days this trick doesn\'t work anymore. GMail changed the way it logs in, and apparently they don\'t allow plain-text login anymore :( :( :( Jez Fri, 09 Oct 2009 20:28:18 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12006 I have noticed that the url method works only on some isps. When I am at home, it does not work. But if I vpn into my office and try use a url to auto login it works just fine. Anyone else have any insight to this? Chris Chris Mon, 12 Oct 2009 19:07:33 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12015 I found this trick myself and its true my bookmark no longer works either. I don\'t have an early version of the login page to compare with and see what has changed but my guess is that they have added the GMAIL_LOGIN cookie and this has broken the bookmark. :shock: :( Can someone ask gmail to restore the \"feature\"? Tue, 13 Oct 2009 00:53:03 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12018 Anonymous again... I found that the problem is with the GALX form value with some help from http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/16341. If I grab the current GALX value and append my bookmark with it my bookmark works but this bookmark will not work cross-browser nor cross-session. Programmatically GALX can be read from an XMLHttpRequest response or a cookie but this cannot be done within a bookmark. I predict the auto login bookmark is broken for good. :( Tue, 13 Oct 2009 02:14:04 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12142 i made my own login into the google account, simil ar to this one, but it is no longer working due to the added GALX value, that will let you make a bookmark with it, but won\'t work when browser is reopened. (new cookie) if someone found a new (bookmark) auto login way. please post! bp Fri, 16 Oct 2009 19:13:15 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12337 noooooooo i want my igoogle homepage back. it was so convenient. someone please share. Joe Wed, 21 Oct 2009 23:23:51 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12451 You just need 1. firefox, 2. Greasemonkey plugin instaled. then instal this script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/60469 ja-hmm Sat, 24 Oct 2009 14:41:08 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12690 Okay, so I found an alternative solution using iMacros Addon for Firefox. Here are the steps: o1. Download Firefox. o2. Download iMacros Addon for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3863 o3. Install the Addon. o4. Restart Firefox. o5. Click on the new Iopus iMacros icon next to your address bar. This should open the iMacros sidebar. o6. Click on the Rec Tab in the iMacros sidebar. o7. Click the Record button to start recording your movements. o8. Navigate to iGoogle login entry page. It should be the link below: https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?continue=http://www.google.com/ig&followup=http://www.google.com/ig&service=ig&passive=true&cd=US&hl=en&nui=1&ltmpl=default o9. Type in your User Name, and then your Password. 10. Click Sign In 11. Go back into iMacros sidebar and click on the Stop button, to stop the recording. 12. If it asks you to save the recording, just click save in the default area. 13. Now you should see a new macro in your iMacros sidebar. 14. Right click on it and select Add To Bookmark 15. Now right click on your new bookmark and select properties. 16. Copy the data in the \"Location:\" area. 17. Now set that location as your homepage. You can further edit your macro by adding these lines at the top of the macro to get rid of some error messages. VERSION BUILD=6240709 RECORDER=FX TAB T=1 SET !ERRORIGNORE YES SET !LOADCHECK NO SET !TIMEOUT 100 SET !REPLAYSPEED SLOW Note: One annoying thing about this approach is that the iMacros sidebar will show up when you press the Home button, but it will disappear once it is done loading the page. Joe Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:53:09 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/tips/automatic_sign_into_gmail_using_a_bookmark.html#josc12692 I forgot to mention that you need to make sure \"Do not encrypt passwords\" is selected in the iMacros Addon settings panel. Otherwise you\'ll get a password prompt everytime you hit the homepage button. Also make sure you have this setting selected before you Step o7. Joe Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:04:59 +0100
