I would like to flash a java script alert box saying that a login name is
already in use. This will happen on the submit and it will go to the action

Courtney,
I hope your not suggesting they run a query of usernames and passwords, or
even just the user names for that matter. They would be viewable in source.

a password cracker ,with a very average size dictionary , against my pwd
file, 99% of the passwords were found in one hour.

This is true. However, I wouldn't think usernames would be considered
sensitive info.

Yes, I include special chars within passwords all the time,
even on passwords without punctuation that are not in any
dictionary.
