title: Javascript IE6/7/8 change input type
body: <p>The following javascript snippet will change the type of an INPUT, for instance from text to password. It's being used to allow users to display their password on-screen when typing it in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>document.save_form.password_confirm.type= 'text';
  ...
  document.save_form.password_confirm.type= 'password';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works great in FF/Chrome but in IE6/7/8 I'm getting a "This command is not supported" error message. </p>
