This appeared after I decided to try out your basic cPanel page. The website was created anyway but it had that at the top.

This is an issue with your forum login at the top, it doesn't appear to turn the password into dots so it's hidden. Its the same on the other forum pages too.

Also, another minor thing I noticed just now, when I tried to insert the images using the image button, it said invald URL, but they work if placed in a web browser

Cheers,

Is it fixed now? If not, could you please provide a bit more information as to what you were doing at the time?

It is being investigated - I am able to replicate it from my end

Thank you

Same issue with the first bit. It appears after I have created a website. As you can see from this picture: http://tedderzdesign.x10.mx/x10basic error3.png
All I am doing is just surfing the web, and tinkering around with web files.

Hi Zenax,

There is an update for the Basic control panel that will be released tonight which will resolve this problem for you. Thank you for reporting the trouble to us.

Just as an aside, obfuscating the password field is considered bad practice now — at most it should be an option that the user can select when logging in in a public location where they might have someone looking over their shoulder. Passwords (or pass phrases) should be long and case-sensitive (in addition to containing special characters), and hiding the password from the user encourages errors (typos, leaving the caps lock key on, etc.). That leads to a lot of people locking themselves out or thinking they've forgotten their password — or worse, using short, easily-crackable passwords to avoid the problem, which is far more harmful than leaving the password field in plain text. (With plain text, someone needs to be watching you. With short, simple passwords, anybody who gets their hands on the user login database will have no problem getting all of the "low-hangiing fruit" — all of the users who have simple passwords — in very short order.)
