When I look at gmail on my mobile web browser the password textbox hashes the characters as I type so I can see the actual input as I type before is hashed with an asterisk.
So as I enter it becomes, P --> *a --> **s etc..
How is this done? I presume its javascript? If somone can point me in the right direction that would be great.
