Good afternoon,

I'm using ARS 7.1, and have had difficulties with users trying to log in with 
mixed case.  As a result, I decided to modify the Mid Tier's login.jsp file to 
only display lowercase, and to use javascript to convert the value to lowercase 
on the fly.  Does anyone have a better way of doing this?  Basically, what I 
did was to take the line that says:

<input name="<%=Params.USERNAME%>" maxlength="<%=Params.USERNAME_LENGTH%>" 
id="username-id" value="<%=com.remedy.arsys.share.HTMLWriter.escape(name)%>" 
class="loginfield" size="30" type="text">

and convert it to this:

<input name="<%=Params.USERNAME%>" maxlength="<%=Params.USERNAME_LENGTH%>" 
id="username-id" value="<%=com.remedy.arsys.share.HTMLWriter.escape(name)%>" 
class="loginfield" size="30" type="text" style="text-transform:lowercase;" 
onblur="javascript:this.value=this.value.toLowerCase();">

I'm not a Javascript king by any stretch of the imagination, but this does get 
the job done and doesn't require much work at all.  Does anyone see any problem 
with doing this?

Thanks,
