Changing the input password bullet

This repo provides instructions & a simple demo showing how to replace the input password bullet in most browsers.

  • Go to Fontello, or equivalent site.

  • Choose or upload an icon.

    fontello-select-glyph

  • Select "Customize Codes" tab.

  • Change the glyph destination to U+"2022" to replace the bullet symbol in webkit browsers.

  • Change the glyph destination to U+"25CF" to replace the bullet symbol in Firefox & MS Edge.

    fontello-customize-code

  • Download webfont.

  • Include the font files on your site, and include the following css (Note, the 0000 will change depending on the glyph & glyph destination)

/* Use the css below to change the password input symbol */
@font-face {
	font-family: 'fontello';
	src: url('./font/fontello.eot?0000');
