There is also a 3rd party plugin available now which may help achieve the same result: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-placeholders/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-default-value-instead-of-form-field-for-field-title#post-141289 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 07:37:11 +0000 webseeker 141289@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ah ha, found help: <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/using-default-value-instead-of-form-field-for-field-title#post-140373 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 07:54:02 +0000 webseeker 140373@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>My form is looking neater with the limited space available using the default value to populate the actual field box with the field title instructions. So for example "Enter your name" is in the field rather than positioned above or to the left.</p> <p>The only thing with using the default value is that the user will need to select the text to enter their own details. Is there a way for the field to empty when the user clicks in the field to enter their details?</p> <p>Thanks for any help. </p>
