Description Sergey Chernyshev 2010-01-03 16:58:56 UTC
Similar to bug 18422 Special:OpenIDLogin should remember user's provider choice and username they entered (if any) so user is presented with appropriate provider choice by default instead of just a resulting OpenID URL in default OpenID section.

This is important as many users will not understand what the URL is or recognize their auto-generated URL from providers like Google or similar.
Comment 1 Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2010-01-03 17:28:53 UTC
We can either save those values in cookies (I don't know if this is possible since only the URL is passed to the server) or try to find the provider based on the URL.
Comment 2 Sergey Chernyshev 2010-01-03 19:05:20 UTC
I think the easiest way might be JavaScript and not the server side.
Comment 3 Sergey Chernyshev 2010-01-03 22:32:47 UTC
Done in r60591 and r60592
