Displaying a hint in the field before user enters a value

[Hovik]

How do you achieve the effect of the placeholder attribute of HTML <input> tag?

Answer:

Filed control -> Html element properties -> Editor Input ->

Then you have 2 options:

• 1. Add the following to Custom Attributes:

Code: Select all

placeholder="Some text" 

• 2. Add a default value to the field, then use client side javascript to clear the default value on click.

• HTML event -> onclick

Code: Select all

if (this.value == "field default value") {
   this.value = "";
}
