I meant an option that let's me add a watermark with no code. Contact form 7 does this quite simply on a per field basis.</p> <p>I'm sure a 200 USD plugin can do that at least as easily as a free one! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/make-field-label-a-watermark#post-62403 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 10:34:03 +0000 Rob Harrell 62403@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've implemented <a href="http://www.wduffy.co.uk/jLabel/" rel="nofollow">this</a> for a client that worked great, its semantic and has good fall-back support and validation stays intact.</p> <p>There is also a variant way to do this here: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/make-field-label-a-watermark#post-62402 Wed, 13 Jun 2012 10:27:03 +0000 stardust 62402@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>i just purchased the developer edition of gravity and am struggling with something that i'm probably just too blind to see.</p> <p>I would like to set a watermark text for my fields. So instead of showing a label above or next to the field, i would like to put the label inside the field itself. Upon focus the watermark disappears and the user can write into the field.</p> <p>Can somebody quickly let me know how this works?</p> <p>Thanks ! </p>
