Add the encoded version as a bookmarklet to easily view your passwords if you're unsure what you may have typed. Especially useful for pre-filled forms on sites where you may have multiple accounts. :)

Just copy and paste everything on line 7 after the second set of // into the URL field for your bookmark.

Note: You may need to use the bookmark manager in your web browser to manually enter the URL.

You can also use this site to create the bookmarklet. Just paste lines 1-5 in the giant text box. http://mrcoles.com/bookmarklet/
