jQuery Plugin Development: Hover to Reveal Masked Password. We talked about how to improve your HTML forms performance a couple of days ago. There we covered a pretty controversial topic “Don’t mask your passwords”, discussing how bad masking your passwords could be for usability. At this moment, we basically have two options: mask password field and don’t ask for any feedback, or show password field as text and potentially decrease security. This is why I think a hover revealing password could be a really good alternative: You can increase your security, and if you are unsure about what you’ve typed just go and hover over it. So, what we will be doing today is a jQuery plugin to do that, and additionally, we will have a behavior pretty similar to what many mobiles does, where we can see the last character for a couple of seconds.

New Creation: jQuery Runloop Plugin. TL;DR links for the eager: Earlier this week I was working on a project that involved one larger animation during which several separate animations would trigger, but not all at the same time, and not all on the same elements. As jQuery provided insufficient functionality to suit my needs, I went on a hunt across the Web in search for a runloop plugin, with these requirements: Alas, my traipsing across the Web yielded no results. However, after deciding to write my own plugin, I came across this concept by Ben Nadel which inspired me, and gave me a clear idea for what to do. Want a demo before reading on? Basic usage Runloop is not a common jQuery plugin in that it is not chainable. There is one very important thing to keep in mind: jQuery Runloop only supports keyframes at 5% intervals, and only at 10% intervals if you give it a duration of < 500ms! The reason for this is that it runs one .animate() call on a div in nodespace, triggering at every step.
