hi, im having problems with my password textfield. for instance, my password is "default", and when i start typing in letter "d", the letter "d" is being displayed first before turning it into an asterisk. i was thinking if it is possible to make my entry entirely in an asterisk character/format without displaying the actual characters. i hope someone can provide me a solution for this. thanks and more power.

That is the way how it is working on mobile phone and it is correct. You can't compaire it with typing password on pc.
Why? How many keys has your keybord and how many keys are on mobile phone?
It would be silly not show which character was entered when you have multiple characters per key. Don't you make mistakes when you type SSM that you press key 3 times instead of 2?

Consider it... And welcome to daniweb :)
