Passwords
NikMelnikov, 2014-08-05 10:37:57

Why are passwords always reset after a failed form submission?

Situation.
1. Register on some new service with a bunch of fields
2. Filled in everything, submit
3. It turns out that something is wrong and after checking / reloading the page, the password and password verification are necessarily reset.
What is the reason for this? Good tone? internal logic? Something else?
It became terribly curious.

the usual security, to be honest, there is no sense as such, it would be better to use ssl everywhere and save the password;
in fact, on a large number of services, the password is not reset.
now it has finally come into fashion to check all fields with ajax
