Displaying a Password field in a grid

Based on other messages in the forum, I used the following lines of code:
var pas = new AW.UI.Input;
pas.getContent("box/text").setAttribute("type", "password");

In spite of this, the password is displayed as is e.g. ABC rather than ***.

Can you tell me why this happens? I do not get any errors, just getting a display that I did not expect for this kind of field.

Thanks!

After the above lines of code, I have:

var num_rows = obj.getRowCount();
pas.onCellDataChanged = function(value){
for (i=0; i<num_rows; i++){
obj.setCellValue(value,3,i);
}
obj.refresh();
};

I hoped that these lines would set the password value in each row of the grid. But is the usage of onCellDataChanged correct and will it ever be fired the first time the grid is populated?

Hi,

Not sure if the following post is helpful, but check out http://www.activewidgets.com/javascript.forum.16359.7/input-text-and-input-password.html
I'm not sure if the problem still persists in the latest versions.
But you can try it out to see if it fixes your problem.
