Hide user input value in the user prompt
in Sahi Pro
Hi,
I am trying to input username and password from the user using "_sahi._prompt("Enter a name");
But what i need is to hide the value of password or replace the value of password with special chars like "*" or "." when user is inputting it. Can it be done in SAHI ?

Can I know why you are using the _prompt() to enter the password? You can use _setPassword() to set the password in the textbox. It will use the encrypted text for setting the value in the textbox.
For security purposes, the login details cannot be stored in a file from which the script can read in which case i could use _setPassword. The requirement is the user should be allowed to login to the system and then the script carries on with its processing.
Please correct me if i am wrong in understanding that the_setPassword() can only get the password( I understand it will be in encrypted format in the file- either excel or properties file).
Thanks,
Archana
_setPassword() will use the password in the encrypted form in the script itself. The password can be kept in any of the files.
_setPassword(_password("password"),"encryptedText");
This can not be decrypted. _setPassword() decrypt the password and set it in the text field.
As of now, _prompt() will not take the encrypted text.
