Is it currently possible to configure rad textbox to function as a securepassword textbox in that it passes the text value as a SecureString instead of a String. If not is something like this in the works?
As far as i can tell, that is not a secure textbox. It is just a textbox with textmode = password. A secure textbox passes its value as a System.Secure.SecureString which cannot be extracted from memory as opposed to a System.String which can remain in memory long after it is used.

Hi Albert,
The RadTextBox can't use SecureString for storing the value. The value comes from the post data in string, and is no point in converting the String to SequreString, since the original string still remains in the Request.Form collection.
