    Hi Fuji,

    Check out this neat little jQuery plugin: FormHighlighter

    Oh - seems I misunderstood the question...

    I don't know if that's possible, unless you can change the generated HTML - then you'd use the placeholder attribute (instead of putting the default in the value attribute).

    Hi Chriztian,

    Well am using Contour and I need to display the value of an input type="text" so that the user knows what the field is since the labels are set to visibility="none" in my stylesheet.

    Normally when typing something in the field should automatically remove the default value input and let me entere whatever i want. But this is not the case when using Contour.

    Am not sure if i can use the jQuery FormHighlighter though

    Chriztian sorry for the misunderstanding what i meant is like in asp

    <asp:TextBox CssClass="txtField" ID="txtemail" runat="server" Text="Enter your e-mail address." onclick="this.value=''"/>

    then when user clicks on the textBox the default value "Enter your e-mail address" disappears and user can just type.

    But am not sure if this possible in Contour.
