registration passwords

[doob]

Thought I'd ask this question here since it seems to have more users.

Why do the password fields get cleared when clicking the submit button on the registration page and what would I change to make it so that those fields don't get cleared?

On the Register template the passwords don't get cleared until AFTER the page refreshes if I delete this: onSubmit="return verify_passwords(password, passwordconfirm);

However, when the page does refresh, the password fields are empty.

Do I need to edit vbulletin_md5.js or register.php to make it so that in the event of a registration error the passwords don't need to be re-entered?

Thanks!

I think you'd need to edit the template and add initial values to the password input tags. Also, normally the passwords get encrypted before the browser sends them, and by taking out the javascript that clears the text fields you're losing that feature (just so you know).
