I've created MVC5 app and I use the following code in create mode when user type passowrd(show asterisks ) and Its working fine .In display mode I want to display just the asterisks (not empty text box) for the field which the user type password ,how should I do that?

this is the code in the create 

 <div class="form-group">
        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Password, new { @class = "control-label col-md-2" })
        <div class="col-md-10">
           @Html.Password("password", "", new { id = "password", Textmode = "Password" })

PasswordFor works real well.

@Html.PasswordFor(model => model.xxxPublicAPI, new { @class = "form-control", value = Model.xxxPublicAPI })

The @class is for style, but the value = Model.xxxPublicAPI is critical.

You can use placeholder attribute:

<div class="form-group">
        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Password, new { @class = "control-label col-md-2" })
        <div class="col-md-10">
           @Html.Password("password", "", new { id = "password", placeholder = "***", Textmode = "Password" })

        //or for displaying, just type
        <label>*****</label>

        </div>
</div>
