This should work as the user would have to move away from the username object.
However you might want to check if the user enters the password first and then the username and decides to hit the enter key.. This actually is a practical scenario wherein after entering the username and password in a regular fashion if the user realizes he has mistyped the username, and then edits it but it still is in mixed case.. Onblur I think will not capture the Enter key event..

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?
