Re: User Modifcation screen - no error msg diplayed if 'confirm passwd' and 'passwd' fields don't match instead 'Add' icon is disabled, not clear to the user what's wrong

GEMS-1-18-10 will display a message when "pasword" field don't match "confirm password" field.

 GEMS 1.18.9
 
In the 'User Modification' screen if you are adding a new user and the password and confirm password fields don’t match then the ‘add’ icon is disabled.  There needs to be an error msg instead b/c it's not clear to the user that the  'passwd' and 'confirm passwd' fields don’t match.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

-  Go to Setup/Users
-  Click on the 'Add' icon
-  Fill in all the fields and make sure that the 'passwd' field and the 'confirm passwd' fields don't match
 
Result:   The 'Add' and 'OK' icons become disabled.  It's unclear to the user as to why those fields are disabled.  There needs to be an error msg of some sort.
