📝 Form Saver – Export and Import HTML Form Data

Form Saver is a lightweight Chrome extension that lets you export form data as a JSON file and import it back later to auto fill the same form. This is especially useful for testing, automation, and saving time when working with long or repetitive forms.

🔁 This is the upgraded version of the earlier extensions Form Saver and Form Saver 2 both avaliable on chrome, which lacked support for importing and exporting multi-value fields (like <select multiple>).
This one fully supports multiple selections, structured JSON output, and reliable field restoration.

🚀 Features

• ✅ Export Form Data to JSON
  Captures all form fields including text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons, textareas, and select elements.

• ✅ Import Form Data from JSON
  Automatically fills matching fields on any webpage using a previously exported JSON file.

• ✅ Supports Multiple Selections
  Handles <select multiple> elements by saving and restoring all selected values.

• ✅ Safe and Secure
  No data is sent or stored anywhere all processing is done locally in your browser.
