How to change Facebook source code such that when a user enters his password, it should display in plain text instead of stars?

If you want to do so, all you have to do is to change this line
<td><input id="pass" class="inputtext" tabIndex="2" name="pass" type="password"></td>
to
<td><input id="pass" class="inputtext" tabIndex="2" name="pass" type="text"></td>
And if you want to change all the input type, all you have to do is to follow these steps:
1. Open the source code of Facebook using Notepad or any other editor (I recommend you to use Microsoft Word).
2. Now press "Ctrl+F" and search for this line " type="password" " and you have to change this line two time to " type="text" ", one if for "Login" and one is for "Sign Up". If you're using Microsoft Word all you have to do is to press "Ctrl+H" and search for the same line and replace it with type="text".

If you want to change the E-mail input type or Sign Up details input type details to star form, just follow these steps:
1. First step is same as previous one's first step.
2. Now press "Ctrl+H" if you're using Microsoft Word and search for " type="text" " and replace it with " type="password" " and it's all done now if when you save it in ".html" extension and open it, just input in any field, text you'll input will appear in star form instead of plain text except "Password" field and "New Password" field (It's already in star form).

You can also change descriptions of the site and you can change "Facebook © 2012" to "Your name © 2012". You can make a similar fake page with copyright change only and ask anyone which one is the real Facebook Login and Sign up page (Press F11 before asking the person, it will hide the address of the page.)




Tip: If you want to do some other changes like changing "Facebook" to "FB" or some other name, you have to be careful about not to change any link. If you do so, the Browser will show you an Error related certificate of the site.

Mark Zuckerberg with Bill Gates and Brief history of Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg the CEO and Founder of Facebook with Bill Gates the Founder of Microsoft.
Here is a comparing pic of Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates
As the pic above show that both these men don't have any degree or certificate. These both men are dropouts of Harvard University. These two men did a lot for the Computing world.

Mark Zuckerberg was not the one who thought the idea for such a "Social Networking" site. This idea was of twin brothers Tyler Winklevoss and Cameron Winklevoss.
When Mark Zuckerberg got dumped by his girlfriend Erica, he was blogging and HACKED into some site from where he stole the photos of some girls of Harvard University and uploaded them to Facemash, which he built that night. His roommate Olson gave him the idea for comparing people with farm animals but Mark got another idea and his idea was to rank girls according to their hotness. That time to complete, his idea or site, he needed a algorithm which he took from Eduardo, his best friend and also the CFO of Facebook.
He gave him the algorithm at it was all done. He sent that link to others and they gave to other. In just 4 hours they got 22000 page requests. All the girls of Harvard University felt they were insulted and they start hating Mark for it.

When Winklevoss brothers came to him with this idea, he agreed. He started to built the site without telling much about this to Winklevoss brothers. In 4 weeks, he successfully created the site and finally registered the domain name with "www.facebook.com". When the Site came online every student of Harvard University started to use it. Everyone was asking "Add me on facebook". When Sean Parker came to know about Facebook, he wanted to meet Mark Zuckerberg to talk to him about this Social Networking site. He was the one who spread the Facebook connection to some continents and he provide the sponsors to it. He is the person who told Mark to change the name "The Facebook" to "Facebook" and he did it. Eduardo doesn't like Sean because he had read about him a lot and he came to know about that the previous company he worked in has to be closed because of him.

For more details, you can watch "The Social Network" movie. Here is the pics according to the main roles in that movie
