I am trying to place a search field on a new website I’m building. Really I want it to be similar to that on this forum, in that text already populates in the html ‘search field’:
in my instance ‘Search our site’
I have placed this in the Output Settings Value field - This works, but I want this text to disappear once the html field is clicked on.
Looking back at old posts I have got thus far:
Selected the html text field - Item>Extended>Input and placed the following… using text wrangler to place this script rather than copy & paste.
onblur: this.value = (this.value = = ") ? ‘Search…’ : this.value;
onfocus: this.value = (this.value = = ‘Search…’) ?" : this.value;
Type: search
The field decoration changes to rounded end, but the text remains once the field is clicked on! What am I doing wrong???
Also is there a way to custom the TEXT style in the html field. Currently mine is black, I would prefer a tinted grey look. The action form element styler does not enable me to do this??? Any ideas guys?
Any suggestions would be great! Cheers
