Hi,

I am using jqurey placeholder and it's working fine the problem is this is only for "input" i need to do same for my textarea.

Any suggestions?

did you use the proper selectors liek the example on the site

:

 $('input[placeholder],textarea[placeholder]').placeholder();

if you are jsut using

$('input[placeholder]').placeholder();

it wont bind to textareas

I am using this code.

jQuery(function() {
jQuery.support.placeholder = false;
test = document.createElement('input');
if('placeholder' in test) jQuery.support.placeholder = true;
});
// This adds placeholder support to browsers that wouldn't otherwise support it.
$(function() {
if(!$.support.placeholder) {
var active = document.activeElement;
$(':text').focus(function () {
if ($(this).attr('placeholder') != '' && $(this).val() == $(this).attr('placeholder')) {
$(this).val('').removeClass('hasPlaceholder');
}
}).blur(function () {
if ($(this).attr('placeholder') != '' && ($(this).val() == '' || $(this).val() == $(this).attr('placeholder'))) {
$(this).val($(this).attr('placeholder')).addClass('hasPlaceholder');
}
});
$(':text').blur();
$(active).focus();
$('form:eq(0)').submit(function () {
$(':text.hasPlaceholder').val('');
});
}
});
