password

  Asked By: Kiswar    Date: Jan 14    Category: Java    Views: 614
  

I'm designing a program which requires the usser to input a password.
Now the problem is that it is an apllication and not an applet. Now
ehen the user enters the password, all that should be displayed on
the screen should be * or nothing at all. How do I doe this? A
example would be useful.
