In many places where you need to input your password to gain access, authorize or confirm a transaction, whenever you type passwords into the input text box, the characters automatically turns into asterisks or bullets which won’t allow any third person (even you) to read the original typed password. But, what if you want to reveal the string behind the asterisks? Here is the simple technique that works almost all latest web browsers
Procedure
1. Right Click in the password field and select Inspect Element as shown below

2. In the window appear (Internet Explorer’s window is shown below), double click on the part that says
type=”password and change to “text” instead of “password” and hit enter.

Done! The dots in the password is changed to visible text.
The change are temporary. It doesn’t compromise your security. Once you refresh the page, the changes will be reverted.
