You are great Maciej Hanski,
Trimming problem solved.

But still unable to get the ON BLUR stuff in document wide Javascript. 
Single events works great. But if there is something where all form fields 
are forced to UPPER case

this.getField("user_id").value=this.getField("user_id").value.toUpperCase();

Thanks
Love and regards
Prasad
