...password... What syntax do I used by not showing the password. <form action="encode_permit2008.php" method="post">
<div align="right"><strong>**</strong></div>
<p align="left">
Please Enter Your </p>
<p align="right">Name <span class="text"><b></b></span>*
<input name="username" size="20" maxlength="12" type="text">
</p>
<p align="right">
<strong>Password**</strong>
<input name="password" size="20" maxlength="12" type="text" value="****">
</p>
<p align="right">
<input name="login" value="Login" class="text" type="submit">
</p>
</form>

.. inside of it... I must not show the encoded password... or by showing the " * " only....
