Password in HTML

[tobirh]

Is it possible to use html for passwords where the login information is not displayed in the source code. ([ctrl]+ shows the username and password in the page source code.)

My server can't deal with php. I used the following code. Is there a way to suppress or hide the login information?

***
<FORM ACTION="../cgi-bin/mycgi.pl" METHOD=POST>

name: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="realname"><BR>
password: <INPUT TYPE=PASSWORD NAME="mypassword">

<P><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="submit">
</FORM>
***

Just using html, no. You can encrypt using Javascript, which will slow down or discourage anyone who's not serious about getting into your site, but ultimately you need to use something like php, asp, cfm, etc.
