need help with password

hi, i need help with my coding here... the code works fine... i just need it so that the characters the user types in will be displayed as '*' instead of the actual character, this is only to protect one page...

Code:

  <!--
 
  var password = "password"
  var x = prompt("Enter in the password "," ")
  if (x.toLowerCase() == password) {
  alert("Password correct \n \n Click OK to proceed")
  location = "diary/diary.html"
  }
 
  else {
  location = "incorrect.html"
  }
 
  //-->

Use the password input.

<input type="password"> instead of <input type="text">.
