In CGI/HTML? <input type="password" name="user_password">

In wxPython?

#!/usr/bin/env python
from wxPython.wx import *

class MyApp( wxApp ):
    def getPassword( self ):
        # Store password in instance variable
        self.password = wxGetPasswordFromUser( "Please enter password",
"Password dialog", "", NULL )
   
    def OnInit( self ):
        self.getPassword()
        print "The user entered tne password", self.password
        return true

app = MyApp(0)
app.MainLoop()

In TkInter, I do not know.

PS: When asking questions on usenet, you usually get the most useful
answers if the question is clear about which context it refers to (in
your case: which GUI toolkit are you using, or do you want to make a
password dialog with Python/CGI or even console?)
