Textfield Prompt Text

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hello guys,

I have this code:


<?php echo $form->textField($model,'title',array('size'=>46)); ?>

and I want to add a default prompt text inside my input field so when the user click in my input the prompt text disappears automatically.

Is there any way to do that?

Regards

change it as following


<?php echo $form->textField($model,'title',array('size'=>46, 'placeholder'=>'your text')); ?>

alternatively you can use javascript


16 <?php Yii::app()->clientScript->registerCoreScript("jquery"); ?>

  17 <script type="text/javascript">

  18 

  19 $(document).ready(function(){

  20   $('#id').val("value");

  21   $('#id').focusin(function(){

  22     $(this).val("");

  23   });

  24   $('#id').focusout(function(){

  25     $(this).val("value");

  26   });

  27 });

  28     

  29 </script>
