@Ben When I password protect a page, even if I have all UX and Biometric settings disabled the password is still remembered. I have to go (in Firefox anyhow) delete my recent browsing history to clear it? Any thoughts?

Not sure about this, but do you have a logout button so users can log out of the password protected page? Otherwise I think the login is stored in a session cookie, so closing the tab or browser wouldn’t clear that, which would explain why you have to delete recent browsing history to clear the cookie…

Anyway just guessing, could be something else…

That works, thanks. It doesn’t stop someone just closing the tab and the browser remembering! but that is not in @Ben control I guess.
