XHTML template

It would be nice to have a more modern template for newloginbox, with

• XHTML compatibility
• Only DIV markers for design so one can use CSS to make it look the way you want it
• When you get to a page with a login form, the cursor should automagically be "put" into the Username field (configurable)

Boris Podzeit has done a great work and contributed a new template which is xhtml-compatible. We'd like to integrate this template soon, but it should be tested first! If you want to help, please take a look in the news group! Boris wrote:
