Password Mask/Unmask Option

Add a password mask/unmask toggle to a form field.

Overview

The form lacks a feature to temporarily reveal the password text for user verification.
Implement a provided JavaScript snippet that changes the input field type, with a fallback method for Internet Explorer compatibility.

Unmasking the password (making the password visible) by clicking on the small icon that appears after you start typing the password.
Here is an example:

Hi omidhz,

There's a JavaScript snippet on GitHub here that you could use. Note that it is a straightforward change of type - except for IE which doesn't allow this so the code then creates a replacement input element.
