[Modus] blank password field in Webadmin

[Suneel Jhangiani]

I might be mistaken here, but I believe that displaying ‘*’ will still put the password in text within the HTML code. The only way to prevent this would be to ensure the server has an encryption / decryption routine and add an additional hidden field to the output keeping track of whether or not the password is encrypted or not.     Regards,   Suneel Jhangiani Inter-Computer Technology Ltd.   Modus3 Bug Hunt Winner At least Congress doesn't make death worse every year.     -----Original Message----- From: Salama hussein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 November 2003 05:51 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Modus] blank password field in Webadmin   * This is the modus mailing list *     When you enter a password in Webadmin and then save, the password fields go blank. This is confusing some users as they think they lost the password.   I think the Java admin applet did the same thing in Vopmail. What's the logic behind this.. why doesn't the password show some asterisks?   Salama   _________________________________________________________________ Send a QuickGreet with MSN Messenger http://www.msnmessenger-download.com/tracking/cdp_games     ** To unsubscribe, send an Email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "UNSUBSCRIBE" in the body or subject line.
