How do I set an input box to display ***** for password input instead of the characters typed.

Its odd that items columns in my Lists have a PasswordChar setting but a plain input field does not.

You have a couple of choices. The first is to add the ND (Non-display) input attribute to your "password" field definition. Alternatively, you can use an Edit (Prim_edit). This has a PasswordChar property.

The reason you see a password character in a list column is that a string column is actually an edit (Prim_edit) rather than a field.

Thanks for that
