Hide text in password field

[Henrik Tilly]

When setting new password in admin interface the password is shown in cleartext. Should be hidden.

Could have a checkbox to say "show text".

I agree, orig

->add('passwordPlaintext', 'text', array('required' => false))

new

->add('passwordPlaintext', 'password', array('required' => true))

while you are at it... you change required to true

as far as implementation add this to the other side of the input

<span class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-warning showPass" id="togglePassword">Show</button>
</span>

and js

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#togglePassword").click(function() {   
        if($("#togglePassword").hasClass("showPass")) {
            $('#passwordPlaintext').attr('type', 'text');
            $("#togglePassword").text("Hide");
            $("#togglePassword").removeClass("showPass");
        }
        else {
            $('#passwordPlaintext').attr('type', 'password');
            $("#togglePassword").text("Show");
            $("#togglePassword").addClass("showPass");
        }
    });
});
