Show Caps Lock status on HTML5 client logon
Posted: Thu Jun 17, 2021 3:12 pm
We have users trigger the bruteforce lockout due to bad passwords, and often it's because the caps lock is on.
Maybe you could display a "CAPS Lock is ON" below the password field if caps lock is on.
The Windows logon page will display such a message to help users.
Here's how to display a caps lock status via javascript.

I guess we could just add it to our logon pages ourselves using that technique, but others might benefit it the default config had that.
