How does Safari know when to prompt the user to save a password?

This is due to How does the browser know when to ask the user to save a password? except mine belongs to Safari.

I have a website that has two different ways to log in. The first is the main site on which you must enter your email address, password and domain of your account. The second way is to actually go to your domain (which points to my server), at which point you will be asked to enter your email address and password.

Logging into the second method (two logins), Safari, Chrome, and Firefox will ask if I want to keep my username and password (as expected).

But the entrance to the first path (three inputs), only Chrome and Firefox ask. Safari does not.

My form is not AJAX / Javascript. It has a form tag, a submit button and three inputs with identifiers / names - email address, password (type = password) and account_domain. I do not have autocomplete = off.

Does anyone know what Safari is looking to ask to save username / passwords? Is it b / c I have three inputs instead of two?

As a side note, I did the same test on my Mac wife using only Safari, and she was not offered to save anyway. Therefore, I do not know.

I confirmed that none of us clicked "never remember passwords" for any of these sites.
