Clearing Default Field Values with jQuery

    So stoked with this method (http://www.gravityhelp.com/clearing-default-form-field-values-with-jquery/?_login=caab2b87a2/) for adding default values inside of inputs. Just wondering if it's possible to style the default value text without affecting the text that the user enters into the input (eg. a light grey, italic default value, and a black, regular user entered value)?

    Cheers,

    Chris

    Chris, I think your best bet would be to use a script that places the labels inside of the input - where you could target and style the labels independently of the inputs.

    I've implemented this for a client that worked great, its more semantic and has better fall-back support and validation stays intact.
