Synopsis

How to use the password field for input

Description

When using the password field, people cannot see what they are typing.

Parameters

input type="password"

Example

<input type="password" name="pass" placeholder="Type your password" required="required" />

Note

All attributes for a password input field are supported (like in this case : name, placeholder and required). Obviously never use form action="GET" when using a password field, always use POST.
