HTML is a type of markup language, that means it is a language that uses tags to create a layout or share information. The "type='Password'" is called an attribute. The interpreter that is reading the text is reading the code that you wrote and creating a layout on a window. In this interpreter​ they can say what this window should do. When the user type a key-input the input runs through the program and then is displayed onto the form. In this case type="Password" tells the program to set all output characters to * but still keep it's value with it, incase the user wants to copy, change or add to it.

yes, but you need to tell the interpreter that you want it to be a password. Glad I could help
