In FW 6 - which you are using - there is an option in the Inspector under the 3rd Tab when your field is selected to add placeholder text. (If your page is set to HTML5)
Stick it in there.

Which characters are you having issues with - or is it all accented etc.

You might also want to check out that the font that you have styled your text fields with “font-family: ‘garogierregular’” actually supports the characters you want to display.
Personally I would stick to regular web ready fonts in fields like this.

Thanks for the answer, Dave!
Question one:
I have tried html5 and adding text in the third tab field, but I want the lead text to disapear when I start typing in the field in browser, which it doesn’t. (I find it very elegant when it does.)
Question two:
As you point out, Garogierregular does not support the charachters I type, but even if I use Verdana, those Swedish characters in the end of our alphabeth doesn’t appear correctly email answers. The character “å” shows for example as “å”
(I use Garogierregular with Caxton action because I need a thin Garamond look alike.)

You do not want to enter the text in the Value field, but rather the Placeholder field. That will give you this behavior. It is up to the browser to support it – IE < 10 or 11 won’t show this text, so don’t rely entirely on it – let it be an additional “sugar” for those of your users who bother to stay up to date.

Sorry, but where do I find the placeholder field? Is it Extended Attributes?

Third tab of the Inspector, under the Type picker. You must be on a page that is set to HTML5 output for this field to be present at all.

Then I can’t use Form Element CSS with background image as in http://www.advis.se/kontakt.html.

I dont know what you mean - I am not seeing a background image on your text boxes.
If you mean your Submit button then FW gives you an option to make any image a Submit button. With any graphic selected look under the 3rd Tab in the inspector down at the bottom there is a Checkbox ‘Submit’

Besides - if you reduce your browser page width then your ‘smile’ moves to the left and is no longer directly under the ‘eyes’.
