Forcing browser password save prompt.

In a web client application with the standard login and authentication approach, is there any way to indicate to the browser that the password field is a password field, so that the browser 'save password' functionality kicks in? So that I don't have to mess about with saving login details in encrypted cookies myself?

Hi Alan,

If you use a login solution with enhanced security, this should work when you have username/password fields on your form, where password is of type 'PASSWORD'

Maybe this post can also be of any help: viewtopic.php?p=94125
