What algorithm does Chrome use to detect a new username and password to be stored?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
What algorithm, or collection of algorithms does Chrome use to detect a new username and password to be stored?
For instance, if you log in to a new website, Chrome asks if you wish to save the password. How does Chrome detect this? What patterns does Chrome look for? Does it detect certain requests, or is it done in another way? Do certain sites need special attention (e.g. Gmail)? Etc.
Is the feature implemented as JavaScript, or in C++, and where is the source code for it located in the Chromium project?
