Hey Beth... Unfortunately, the login code for vBulletin does some stuff that means WebKit sees the password field as blank when you submit the form.

(This is because they have some JavaScript that runs when you submit the form which takes your password out of the password field, turns it in to an md5 hash, and sticks it into a hidden field before everything is submitted.)

You can work around this by being logged out, viewing the page source, finding the login form (search for "login form") and then at the end of the form remove the last couple of hidden fields, then Redisplay the page. Now, enter your username and password and when you login we should prompt to save the info and it will also be autofilled for you when you come back.

I've been working with Rachael to see if we can get around this type of thing in OmniWeb by looking at the form information before everything is submitted, but the default WebKit API has only one delegate for this type of thing and that's what we're using. Unfortunately, it's not actually called until after the onsubmit JavaScript is run.

You might also be able to work around this by temporarily turning off JavaScript and logging in... no idea if that will work though.
