[Laszlo-user] boolean attribute question/problem

[Dave Miller]

In the following code, why doesn't the password field show *'d out  
letters?

If you run it, you can see that ispassword is "true" for the correct  
field. Is it a data type problem? Is the string "true" not evaluating  
as true?

Thanks,

Dave
