    Registration does not error check’ ‘ space chars and so a user can register ‘user name’ thinking their username is ‘user name’. They cannot login in because the system has either saved only ‘user’ or concatenated them.

    Is this a theme issue or wordpress?

    Is there an easy fix – I fear going into a registration error checking script and having to mess with regular expressions which is out of my depth

    tnx

    Dan
