[xwiki-devs] Login Password readable in password input
Hello XWikiers, today I encountered the problem, that my login password was readable as plain text. After some tests the login input worked again, without changing anything. This worries me quite a bit, because I cannot predict whether this will happen again and after it happens the browser's autocompletion suggests passwords to type. Does anyone of you encounter familiar problems or is having an explanation. We were thinking that it has something to do with the trick you are using to make the "password" label readable in the password input element. May this be? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, I think you are using Curriki, or something based on it, as by default (XWiki Enterprise) should never display the password as plain text. It would be better to raise this issue to the Curriki mailing list ([email protected]), if you are indeed using that product. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
