So this little bit of code solved my problem:
elements_with_auth_user_ids = login_form.elements(_id=re.compile(
'^auth_user'))
for x in elements_with_auth_user_ids:
x['_id']= "login_" + x['_id']
Using regex with the elements method, found all the ID's starting with
"auth_user", and added a "login_" user prefix. This prevents having
duplicate ID's on the page (b/c I have the register form on the same page).
