Jacques Le Roux updated OFBIZ-12548: ------------------------------------ Description: adding this to a form in a widget/somethingForms.xml file: <field name="description" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonDescription}" required-field="true"><text placeholder="This is placeholder text"/></field> Does not throw a error, but when the form is displayed, no placeholder text appears. I've checked the html code in the browser to confirm that it wasn't white placeholder text on a white background, and it does not define the placeholder property in the generated html. Are there any cases where placeholder text does work? If so, it would be nice if a working example could be added somewhere (like someone in ofbiz, or maybe in the "example" plugin) Here is a closed past issue implying that it's supposed to work now: OFBIZ-7024 was: adding this to a form in a widget/somethingForms.xml file: <field name="description" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonDescription}" required-field="true"><text placeholder="This is placeholder text"/></field> Does not throw a error, but when the form is displayed, no placeholder text appears.
