You can avoid that issue by using a solution that doesn't modify the inputs value. The (planned) jQuery UI watermark widget does that, you can get the code from labs here: http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/svn/branches/labs/watermark/ui/ui.watermark.js
A sort-of demo is here: http://www.commadot.com/jquery/experiments/shunra/ More details on the widget here: http://wiki.jqueryui.com/Watermark Jörn On Sat, Sep 19, 2009 at 6:44 AM, jbotos <m...@jbotos.com> wrote: > > Hi, I have values in each input which tells the user what to enter in > that field.
