Masking input characters without type=password

Question

So I have a problem with newer browsers saving passwords. Say I have a password box like so:

Answer 1

The solution that worked for me was like this :

First input type should be text

At the focus event turn input type to password

Listen for user inputs and if input field value is empty set type to text again

This way at the start and when input field is empty browser will not show suggestions.
