Password security

Post by andylyon87 »

I want an input box for a password to show ***** instead of the actual characters.

Use <input type="password" name=xyz value=$xyz>

It should be noted that this does not encrypt the information entered and should not be considered as a real security measure. All it does it show * instead of the keypress.
