We are planning quite a few enhancements to the existing form functionality. Additional field options &amp; label options are on that list for sure. You'll probably start seeing some of those type enhancements in the 1.6+ releases. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-title-attribute-to-a-field#post-17812 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 10:47:06 +0000 daltonrooney 17812@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks, I'll give that a shot! That should definitely work for now, although it would be great to have something similar built into the plugin at some point so my clients can update it themselves. I understand you're considering adding inline labels, it's definitely something I'd be excited to see.</p> <p>Dalton </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-title-attribute-to-a-field#post-17809 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 09:16:50 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 17809@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can try adding the actual title attributes with jQuery. You would probably have to define this before the other script is loaded for it to work properly.</p> <p>example:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt; jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery(&quot;input#input_1_2&quot;).attr(&quot;title&quot;, &quot;this is the title&quot;); }); &lt;/script&gt;</code></pre> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/adding-a-title-attribute-to-a-field#post-17801 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 00:03:26 +0000 daltonrooney 17801@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I use a cool jQuery plugin called formtips to add inline text to my fields</p> <p><a href="http://manuelboy.de/projekte/jquery-formtips/" rel="nofollow">http://manuelboy.de/projekte/jquery-formtips/</a></p> <p>The info clears on focus and is not submitted along with the form. The plugin works by using the "title" of the field, for example: </p> <p>&lt;input type="text" name="website" value="" id="website" size="40" title="website" /&gt;</p> <p>Right now I'm using the default text/clearit class tip that was mentioned on the forum <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/" rel="nofollow">before</a>. That gets me halfway there, but the default text is still submitted to the form, which is not great. </p> <p>It would be great if I could somehow add a title to a field so that formtips can use it. Any ideas? </p>
