If you are using an input field on the page instead of a prompt you can do that very easily:
<input type=password>

That may not work for what you are doing, but if you can use a field on the page instead of the prompt you have an easy solution. [sig]<p>Crystal<br><a href=mailto:crystals@genesis.sk.ca>crystals@genesis.sk.ca</a><br><a href= > </a><br>--------------------------------------------------<br>

The other option is to use window.open() to launch a new window that mimics the prompt function, but contains the <input type='password'> as identified above. [sig][/sig]
