You'd hopefully send it off to some server-side language (php, python, ruby etc) for processing. I think the OP just wanted a password box in html.

I seen the message where Sina corrected himself, but you want the input type to be password, which doesn't require any Javascript at all.

Boyer Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2011 5:23 PM To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Asking for a password in html I am thinking of setting up a web page so people can upload files. However, I want to require a password. How does one ask for a password in html? Of course when the user types one it shouldn't appear on the screen. At most asterisks should appear. Thanks, John
