Bug description:
  As reported by Mushraf Mustafa

  By using something like

  Lastname: <img src='nothing' onerror='myFunction'>

  A user can submit potential dangerous payload to be saved as their name in 
the usr_registration table.
  The values are then also emailed out to the the user and admin.

  And if accepted become part of the new user's account.

  We should clean up the submitted values from the form and remove any
  HTML tags and Javascript code as that is not valid input.
