ASPX密码文本框

Question

By default, the password fieldbox masked all the text the user typed as ** .

I want to be able to display a string on the Password field box.

So it should says "Please enter your Password" initially when the password control is loaded.

Currently aspx showing it as * ** * ***

How can i best achieve this?

Cheers

Answer 1

Use TextMode.

<asp:TextBox ID="Password" runat="server" TextMode="Please enter your Password"  
onclick="this.value=''; this.type='password'; ">Password                                                    
</asp:TextBox>

or

Use placeholder.

For EX:

<input type="password" placeholder="Please enter your Password">

You can achieve it using jquery:

HTML:

<input id="password" value="password" class="password-input" />

JS:

$('.password-input').bind('click', function() {
    if ($(this).val() === "Please enter your Password")
    {
       this.type = "password";
       $(this).val(''); 
    }
});

$('.password-input').bind('blur', function() {
    if ($(this).val() === "")
    {
       this.type = "text";
       $(this).val('Please enter your Password');
    }
});
