Do you mean that you want the password to be hidden as a person types it in the form?
Or,
Do you mean that when the password is POSTed (sent), you would like it be encrypted and not show the true password ?
Please elaborate.

Not to show the password. By using method="POST".

You are going to have to use a script to hash or encrypt the password before it arrives at it's destination.
I'd advise not to use MD5 hashing.
In php, I use bcrypt.
I think I chose that method in settings somewhere, locally on my server and remotely. I forget now, but my scripts in php verify a password matches a bcrypt hashed version.
Research bcrypt.
Bcrypt is also irreversible, meaning you cannot get the original password out of it.
Of course, there are other hashing and salting methods.
