Comments on: Stereolabels: Form labels inside inputs with Prototype http://stereointeractive.com/blog Development Blog Thu, 17 Jun 2010 09:37:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: jabbett http://stereointeractive.com/blog/code/stereolabels/comment-page-1/#comment-357 jabbett Tue, 30 Dec 2008 16:39:36 +0000 http://blog.stereodevelopment.com/code/stereolabels-embedded-form-labels-with-prototype/#comment-357 This script works perfectly in Firefox 2/3, but I'm having a problem with IE7 on WinXP. The text in the label tags remains visible next to each form field, and the labels within the form fields don't appear at first -- they show up only after tabbing through them (or adding, then removing input). Snippet and screenshots here: http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/6775 Thanks! This script works perfectly in Firefox 2/3, but I’m having a problem with IE7 on WinXP.

I'm glad you found this script and hopefully it will be useful to you. If you do manage to get it running with jquery, feel free to post a link here. thanks rob!

I am currently trying to do the same thing using jQuery, although have run into problems with with stacking events (focus and blurs) especially with the password field. Also I am having to remove and add password inputs to the dom because I can't change the type :( At least now I can fall back on your class if needed, however I am determined to write it myself, even if I use your solution for hits :) This is great, very nicely written too!
