Hi there,

How would one go about putting a mask on an input field? For instance, if I had a <input type=text name=Password>, how could I get **** to show instead of CATS?

Thanks

instead of
<input type=text name=Password>
you would use
<input type=password name=Password>

otherwise if masking was totally necessary, you would use javascript to format the field after data was input.
