  Set the text as the value, then set it blank onFocus...

  onFocus(javascript:document.f.inputfield.value = ""); and
  onBlur(javascript:document.form.inputfield.value ="Username";);

    Hello, 

    This is more of a JS question, but I'm going to ask it anyways.

    I just got the book, "Pro Javascript Techniques" (Apress) and what sucks is that many of
    the examples do not work.

    What I want to do is have to input boxes, a username and password.
    Instead of having labels next to them such as:

    Username: [INPUT BOX]
    Password: [INPUT BOX]

    I want to have the text inside the box [INPUT BOX: Username]. etc...

    When the user mouses over, I want to make that "Username" text dissapear so they can type their username in.

    Any help?

    - Ben
