How can I move the label to inside the field?

  1. Hello,

    How can I move a textbox label so it displays inside the textbox instead of above? Then, I want the textbox label to disappear after the user clicks inside the textbox to enter information.

  2. That functionality is commonly referred to as placeholder text. There is a 3rd party add-on which can be used with Gravity Forms to provide that functionality/

  3. Used this plugin but it doenst seem to work for me on Google Chrome, the input is completely greyed out and you cannot enter text.

    Works fine on IE, FF.

    Any thoughts on that?

    You would have to talk to the developer of that add-on, as we don't support third party add-ons. If I had to guess, I would say it was some kind of JS issue... All my best!
