Cross-browser alternative to -webkit-text-security
This is a simple set of fonts that only consists of 3 different characters.
Disc 
font-family: "text-security-circle" for
an element should then display all the element's characters in a concealed
way, like it was a password field.
This is useful if you want to get the benefits of input[type="password"]
but also combine that with other element types, like input[type="tel"]. In
fact, the project was created for this exact purpose as an answer to a
StackOverflow
question.
npm install text-security
You can use the fonts by adding this repo as a dependency and including
dist/text-security.css in your project, like so
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="node_modules/text-security/dist/text-security.css">
If you want to make your own tweaks, the npm run build command has two
optional arguments for you. By default, 768 different unicode characters are
included in the fonts, making it reliable for different use-cases but also
adding quite a big font files as a dependency. You can use the
--max={number} option to reduce the amount of included unicode characters.
If you are feeling wild, you can also add your custom shapes by dropping them
to assets folder and running the build with --shapes={string} option. The
value should be comma-separated list of svg file names (don't include the
file extension in the name). The default value is circle,square,disc.
The generated css will have class names with text-security-* prefix
followed by the name of the shape, like text-security-disc.
demo.html contains a proof-of-concept demo file, which you can just open in
any browser. The same thing can also be found as a
fiddle. In development, you can also try
out the library by just including the css using RawGit <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://rawgit.com/noppa/text-security/master/dist/text-security.css">
