It may be, actually, that the password fields are not experiencing this problem. If that's the case, the problem may indeed be more related to the HTML methods. Testing.

    FYI, I suspect the problem is related to the arrangement of the code where I enter the values into the DBM. The line 
    $synusers{$fields{'updalumname'}}="
    and those few that follow, I had to change a bit when I first wrote them. You'll note that the value assignments are spread strangely over 5 lines of code. I was having problems (redisplaying values in HTML) that were seemingly related to the carriage returns in the code.
