Password Fields
Why should you use a password field?
A password field is a particular type of text input area. It does not provide any security other than concealing the text that is typed into it by replacing each character with an asterisk (*) or blob. This provides a small level of security, as a user's password cannot be discovered by simply looking at the screen while they are typing it in.How to use a password field

<form action="form-process.php" method="get">
Username: <input type="text" name="username" maxlength="10" value="your name"><br>
Password: <input type="password" name="password"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
Username: <input type="text" name="username" maxlength="10" value="your name"><br>
Password: <input type="password" name="password"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
