USING POSITIONAL ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY LOGIN CREDENTIALS ON A WEB PAGE

A login credentials identification component uses analysis of the relative positions of text entry fields to identify login credentials on a web page. The login credentials identification component identifies both a password entry field on a web page, and the text entry field immediately preceding the identified password entry field. The login credentials identification component uses the positional relationship between the identified password entry field and the immediately preceding text entry field, as well as other supplemental factors, to determine that the identified text entry field immediately preceding the password entry field comprises a user name entry field.
