Hi,
Is there a way to add "placeholder" attribute for an EditBox control using GUI.

I can code it but was wondering if there is a "GUI" friendly way.

Thanks

There is no option to add "Placeholder" for an EditBox using GUI.

As you know, it can be added using js.
document.getElementById("edit1").placeholder = "Please Enter Text";

The place holder attribute for form elements are part of the HTML 5 standard. The value of the placeholder attribute provides the user of the form with an example of what valid input for a field looks like.

BM,

There is not, even in 8202M. There is however a Title attribute that adds a tooltip upon mouseover. You'll just have to code it for now.

Doug,
