Hello,
I want to register on an English forum, but they are asking me for a "display name". I don't know what it is, nor the difference with the login name, which they are also asking for. Thank you for your responses.
Configuration: Windows Vista / Internet Explorer 7.0

It's simply the name under which you will appear.

The login is for you to connect, so no one needs to see it; with the display, everyone recognizes you :)

The login is for signing in, that's the one you need to remember.

Thank you. Can the two be identical or could that cause a problem?

No, you can put both the same in principle.
