This isn’t a tech support site, it’s just a critique of AutoFill’s detection scheme, written on a personal blog. Since the last few comments have all been support questions (well, except for the really rude person who posted a few days ago calling me names and saying I should be “fired” for not posting the answer he wanted), I’m closing comments on this entry.

Ok! I admit it I have little knowledge of how Auto Fill works…I did put in information but I have an error and cannot find out how to access my Auto Fill information and do it over…Does anyone know how to delete the current information? Seems like once I put in the information it is cemented forever…Help

I am head-injured, but previously, quite computer literate (since 1967).
I find attempts at solving all problems by internet communications, quite
frustrating. In that, I have a difficult time with organizing my thoughts and
keeping my objectives in line. This latest instance happened while I at-tempted to attain a new password for using my computer for games-
playing. Could you help me please.

Maybe a little late but I have confirmed your finding. Also I have found that if you break the address up by say, having the address fields in the 2 lefthand columns of a table and other non-related labeled texts fields in the 2 right hand columns, the the address breaks. It seems to scan forward for the zip code field to recognise the preceeding fields as part of an address.
Second point, if you put two identical address fields on a page it fills the second one in with the alternative address. Weird as you say. Autofill pays no attention to RFC3106, contrary to what the Google advice page states.
