Clearing Default Field Values

    I've read the post on how to clear the default field values and it works great. But how do I handle it when I already have a css class name such as; gf_left_third - how do add the clearit css class name but also keep the gf_left_third.

    Thanks for the help

  2. All you would have to do is put a space between the two, so in your CSS input you would have:

    gf_left_third clearit

    I am having problems with this function working properly. For example on this website

    http://www.eowc.net

    When you click the box the cursor goes to the end of the text in the box and does not clear it out when you start typing. I have this method on multiple forms with the same results.

    Thanks for the help.

    As a note the clearit works fine on one of my sites when I am not using one of the following types of functions with it

    gf_left_third

    Thanks

  5. I took a quick look in your source and don't see any jQuery references to go along with the clearit class for it to function - did you include those? These 3 js references all give 404 errors BTW: Screenshot

    I did not. I'm pretty green with my jquery. I honestly didn't know I needed to. Any help would be great.

    Thanks
