Does using a pasword input type input name=password type=password
make the transfer more secure from someone sniffing my connection or does
it
It's presentation layer only - the data is not encrypted during transfer.

I'm pretty sure it just shields the on looker from viewing.
View source in the browser still shows what the VALUE is, if any.

It is possible to md5 encrypt a password before you send it off to the
server using javascript onSubmit function. Check this code out:
