Login Block - add text into fields?

Permalink April 26, 2012 at 5:17 PM

Hi all,

In the free login block I am trying to add some wording which disappears when the user clicks into the field

this is from view.php but i'm not sure where to put the initial value?

<div class="uNameWrap">
         <?php   echo $form->text('uName',$uName); ?>
      </div>

thanks for looking!

change

<?php   echo $form->text('uName',$uName); ?>

to

<?php   echo $form->text('uName',$uName,null,array('placeholder'=>'your text to dissapear')); ?>
