Description (please include examples/screenshots where applicable)

Hello! We helped a non-profit client theme their Donation / Petition pages on top of a 3rd part service (Engaging Networks) that handles the heavy lifting. Recently one of our clients had a supporter reach out to let them know that an assistive plugin they use "Simple Form Fill" was not working for them on their forms. This was then forwarded to us and we looked into it.

First, thank you for creating such an incredible plugin and making it so easy to find you and provide feedback. Second, the issue turns out to only happen when the page is served via an iFrame. Below is an example that reproduces the problem. Just click "next" and then you will have a few form fields you can fill out.

We don't have any experience with plugin development but would be happy to provide any more details (if this is even something that is a possibility to fix).

Hm, works for me on your codepen example. Maybe a conflict with some other extension?

Thank you. I tried it with a clean Chrome profile and only this extension. It did indeed work, I will report back.
