[Mediawiki-l] Login form small visual improvement

Hello,

I've been working on a small visual improvement on the
login/registration form of MediaWiki (MediaWiki 1.5 CVS). I wrote a
small JS script, which disables/enables the "Login" and "Create new
account" buttons accordingly; for example, you are not allowed to
click on "Create new account" if you haven't filled in the "retype
password" field. What's more, the code checks if the two passwords
match before the form is sent to the server, and displays a message if
they don't (and also cancels the navigation process and clears the
password fields). If javascript is disabled, the pages will work
normally, as they would without my code.
The only file I modified is /include/templates/Userlogin.php. Since I
don't have CVS write access, I am submitting the modified file here.
If it is possible, I would appreciate it if one of you developers with
read/write CVS access can take a few minutes to check my code and CVS
commit the file. I am attaching the file in this e-mail. Please let me
know if there's something you don't like, or something you'd like me
to add, and please let me know if and when you include my changes to
the CVS (or if you don't, the reasons why you won't)

Thank you in advance :-)
Dionysis Zindros.
