[thelist] Playing with the Javascript Prompt

I recently finished working on the user admin side of an intranet site 
developed using JSP with Javascript.  I used the input type of "password" 
using the following code:

<tr>
<td>Enter Password</td>
<td><input type="password" name="userPassword" size="20" maxlength="8"></td>
</tr>

This causes whatever data is typed into the textbox to appear as an *.  I 
believe this is the same for HTML.
