asp.net login control with internet explorer

Question

I have an ASP.net login control in my web application. While I run the application in Internet Explorer and type the password it is displayed as question marks.

Is anyone able to solve this problem? It would be very useful for my project.

Answer 1

Normally this means that the font it's trying to use does not contain the character that was specified. Did you set a specific character or a non-default font? (The default symbol should be the asterisk, * - not sure about the font.)

Also, check the character set for your pages.

Answer 2

 <asp:TextBox ID="pwd" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>

Answer 3

Change the font to something other, then you will get aquestion mark instaed. Don't remember the font name. Instaed you can also handle the key events to display a question mark when a key is typed.
