I am trying to get this simple script to work. Basically, when a user clicks on the Show link, it will display the password in the password text box and hide it when it is clicked again. I have searched for solutions but couldn't find anything for what I need. Here is the code:
JavaScript
function toggle_password(target){
var tag = getElementById(target);
var tag2 = getElementById("showhide");
if (tag2.innerHTML == 'Show'){
tag.setAttribute('type', 'text');
tag2.innerHTML = 'Hide';
}
else{
tag.setAttribute('type', 'password');
tag2.innerHTML = 'Show';
}
}
HTML
<label for="pwd0">Password:</label>
<input type="password" value="####" name="password" id="pwd0" />
<a href="#" onclick="toggle_password('pwd0');" id="showhide">Show</a>
When I click the link, nothing happens. I have tested this without using the if statement too and still did nothing.
