Hi Daniel, I have attached a patch that does this below. You can use it by setting <param type="password"> However the security is lacking as you can see the string when you try to re-run the job and view source. Is this sufficient for your purposes?

Hi all!
Is there any way to use password input fields ("<input type="password"...") with tools? A tools XML definition file only seems to support text and textarea fields. I already tried setting a tools parameter type to "password", which unfortunately results in an "Unknown tool parameter type 'password'". Trying "password="True"" (like "area="True"") does not result in an error, but the text field is still just a normal text field. I may be mistaken, as I am new to Python and Galaxy, but there already seems to be a PasswordField class and a TextField class, which both can be found in several files. Was the PasswordField class for tool parameters maybe disabled for a reason?
Thanks! Daniel ___________________________________________________________ Please keep all replies on the list by using "reply all" in your mail client. To manage your subscriptions to this and other Galaxy lists, please use the interface at:
