	What im trying to do is turn that type to a password..so I can see
the text...is that possible.
	 


Yes it is possible to change a field type to text and then back to password
in Firefox, but you'll get errors from IE and opera.  They don't like the
idea of changing form field types.

The way I've gotten around this is by creating an new field (innerHtml),
using the old field's values, and then replacing the old field.  It's a lot
easier than it sounds using a framwork's insertion methods
(prototype::Insertion.Before), though shouldn't terribly difficult using
straight javascript.
