couldnt hurt to do both. remember to include the jquery library in order for the jquery code to work (when placed in javascript element). Username/password code is in the header template.
--------------- Added [DATE]1323020021[/DATE] at [TIME]1323020021[/TIME] ---------------
here is the actual code for the username/password fields
Code:
<input type="text" class="textbox<vb:if condition="!$username"> default-value</vb:if>" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="10" accesskey="u" tabindex="101" value="<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>" />
<input type="password" class="textbox" tabindex="102" name="vb_login_password" id="navbar_password" size="10" />
<input type="text" class="textbox default-value" tabindex="102" name="vb_login_password_hint" id="navbar_password_hint" size="10" value="{vb:rawphrase password}" style="display:none;" />
