Display Password Character
posted

Can anybody give me a clue as to how to display password characters in place of the text in a WebDataGrid?

I've figured out how to do this when I am adding or editing a cell using a Grid Editor Provider, but it's not clear to me how to change the display to replace the text with password characters when I am just viewing the data table.

Appreciate any help!

    I am experiencing the same issue.  Seems that the behavior is almost exactly backwards.  The field is clear text until entering the edit mode, then it is obfuscated. 

    I am using the following provider definition and column defintions: 

    <EditorProviders>

    <ig:TextEditorProvider ID="PasswordEditor" EditorControl-TextMode="Password"></ig:TextEditorProvider> 

     

     

     

    </EditorProviders> 

     

     

    <ig:BoundDataField DataFieldName="ExternalPassword" Key="ExternalPassword" Header-Text="Password" Width="30%" ></ig:BoundDataField>
