In my beans, on the password field I just do something like
public void setPassword( String value )
{
if ( null != value && !"".equals( value ) ) password = value;
}
Kind regards,
Joachim

Yeah, that was my question. Do you have to create a separate field outside your
bean and then update manually if it hasn't changed? Or is there a way that the
field could be smart enough to store the value in the session or something and
then update the bean value only when the user enters one.

Subject: Re: Use of passwordfield?
Dan,
This component does not display the previous value if there is one and
hides the input. This is important as view source would otherwise reveal
the passwords.
The only thing you need to be careful about is that it will update your
password field in the bean to null when no new value was given by the
user. You probably don't want passwords to be reset like that.
Kind regards,
Joachim

To ask a dumb question: what's the use of the passwordfield component since it
doesn't output a value? I have a 'edit user' page where you have password and
'confirm password' fields. When you submit the form it resets the value to
empty if you don't enter anything.
