RadTextBox show nothing in TextMode="Password"

[Jose]

I generate a password using the method  Membership.GeneratePassword(6, 2) from .net framework and setting the RadTextBox
txtPassword.Attributes.Add("value", passwordfgenerated). I want to show in the RadTextBox the asterisks
 That works with asp:TextBox but not with RadTextBox


<div class="field-box">
            <div class="left-field left-label">
                <asp:Label CssClass="right-field" ID="lblPassword" runat="server" Text="Password:"></asp:Label>
                <a href="#?w=800" rel="PasswordHelp" class="left-field poplight" tabindex="0"></a>
            </div>
            <telerik:RadTextBox CssClass="left-field" ID="txtPassword" runat="server" TextMode="Password" MaxLength="20">
            </telerik:RadTextBox>
 </div>
protected void bnGeneratePassword_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
string passwordGenerated = Membership.GeneratePassword(6, 2);
txtPassword.Attributes.Add("value", passwordGenerated);
}

Hi Jose,

I will forward your query to our developers for further insight on the matter and let you know about the result as soon as I get a reply.

Hi Jose,

Thank you for your patience.

Please note that passing any Password type text from server to client is strictly restricted and we highly suggest you to avoid such vulnerable approach. You can try to generate the random password using javascript methods on the client-side and the use set_value('SamplePassword') to the RadTextBox client object.

I hope the clarification was helpful.
