Text is the default fallback so this shouldn’t matter. To fix this I suggest you change the selector to the jQuery shorthand version: from: "input#" + for_attr + "[type='text']," + to: "input#" + for_attr + ":text," + Thanks for this plugin. I had noticed Apple’s subtle treatment of the input placeholder text upon focus, nice to see it so easy to implement. A nice extension of this would be to add support for the placeholder attribute if the users browser doesn’t already support it: I encountered an issue applying inFieldLabels to an input that didn’t have the type attribute set.

It address most of my requirements. About James arguments... I'm not an advance JS developper but he may have a point. I know his approach is consistent with the technic proposed by Mike Brittain in the "Making Compact Forms More Accessible" article on A List Apart. http://www.alistapart.com/articles/makingcompactformsmoreaccessible/ Very good plugin Douglas.

I would prefer your first (1st) propositions. Keeping everything within your plugin, even the associated CSS declarations. Just make it short and clean so it would be easy for us to overrule your top & left label positionning according to our needs (if font-size differs). Something like: If you ask me…

Comments are often presented to a user in the respective fields, but when the user clicks it, the text disappears and becomes lost. Now there is a way to keep the tip in the field when clicked.
