WebUI.authenticate keyword doesn't work with a BASIC auth dialog in Google Chrome & IE

WebUI.authenticate(GlobalVariable.G_Home_page_URL, "some_username", "some_password", GlobalVariable.G_ShortTimeout)

With Google Chrome (62.0.3202.94 (Official Build) (64-bit)) the WebUI.authenticate keyword will fill in the username + password fields but will fail to press the “Login” button.

With IE 11 (v11.15.16299.0) the WebUI.authenticate keyword will not fill in either the username or password fields.

All of the above was tested on Windows 10 Pro 64bit (v 1709 build 16299.19)

It works fine in Firefox (56.0.2 (64-bit)).

Hi Jinesh,
