autocomplete like firefox

firefox saves textbox values(form values) and the next time i use that website i dont have to retype it.
e.g. i am tracking a shipment number - 556723. the next time i open the website i just type 5 and a drop down comes up with 556723. this makes it so simple and i dont have to remember stuff or go looking for it in my email

can this be done in opera natively?

cause i have used the autocomplete extension but it disables search suggestions in web sites like flipkart.com , so i believe a native solution is whats needed. is there some way to do this in opera?

What about Opera's Notes feature? When you focus a text input you can access them easily by pressing the down key on your keyboard. Saving them is easy, too (right-click menu on selections or Ctrl + Shift + C).

I probably misunderstood you - but if you mean this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14257223/Opera_forum_pics/flipkart_com.jpg it's working with AutoComplete enabled confused
