hello. I'm trying to register a user but what i'm testing is validations. The problem i have is the password comparison. When i want to compare the two password fields everything gets messed-up (and it also calls an actionclass even though it's client side validation). Please see the screen shots i have added at the end of the letter. I think anything else is pretty clear from the screenshots.
