I would like to save customer in database, when someone filled billing information and hit the 'continue' button. Does anyone know how to do it?
I am using magento 1.9.2 and i tried with event "controller_action_postdispatch_checkout_onepage_saveBilling" but its not working over there, nothing happen with event or observer.
After saving customer in database i would like to logged in with that customer id, and need to refresh the page, or any other way is welcomed.
I would like to know how to do this ? if any idea please share here.
code as below :
create Utsav_Customersave.xml in app/etc/modules/
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Utsav_Customersave>
<active>true</active>
<codePool>local</codePool>

public function autoRegisterBilling($evt){
if(!Mage::helper('customer')->isLoggedIn()){
$data = $evt->getEvent()->getControllerAction()->getRequest()->getPost('billing', array());
$customer = Mage::getModel("customer/customer");
$email = $data['email'];
$websiteId = Mage::app()->getWebsite()->getId();
$store = Mage::app()->getStore();
