Forms

[Andyroo123]

Okay, with text boxes in forms, you know how you can have a value before hand, how do you make it gray writing and when you click it, the writing disappears.

Thanks in advance,
Andy

p.s I might add more questions to this topic as I come along to them

Try this:

<input type="text" value="Type" style="font-style: italic;color: grey;" onfocus="this.style.fontStyle='normal';this.style.color='black';this.value=''" onblur="this.style.fontStyle='italic';this.style.color='grey';"/>

Okay, what about that, but in a text area? because where you put the text is different.

Just put the following in the attributes of the text area:

style="font-style: italic;color: grey;" onfocus="this.style.fontStyle='normal';this.style.color='black';this.value=''" onblur="this.style.fontStyle='italic';this.style.color='grey';"

You know how you set it to resolved, can you change it back afterwards, or should I just create a new topic?
