Hi,
When trying to login to Google[1] for instance, using eww, I
cannot enter login name and password. Text is entered but it's
entered in front of the input area. Moreover password is not
concealed by asterisks.
Thanks.

The bug I brought up
--- can't enter login name and password in the input areas ---
was fixed. This helps my purpose, so I'm closing this bug.
What is my purpose is to update the cookies for a site. After
that I can retrieve some data from the site (that requires login)
by using the functions `url-retrieve', etc. To verify that the
cookie is updated, eval (url-cookie-write-file) and see the file
~/.emacs.d/url/cookies .
But this closing doesn't mean that eww is enabled to be used for
logging in to a web site. Eww should visit `my page' after the
login session, like Firefox and so on does.
Thanks.
