I am in search for a good jQuery watermark plugin that work with ASP.NET and found here and downloaded it and included in the head portion
<script src="js/jquery.watermark.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I have login and signup on same page and referencing them as:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$("#<%= (Login1.FindControl("UserName")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your Username");
$("#<%= (Login1.FindControl("Password")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your Password");
$("#<%= (CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("UserName")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your Username");
$("#<%= (CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("Password")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your Password");
$("#<%= (CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("ConfirmPassword")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your ConfirmPassword");
$("#<%= (CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("Email")).ClientID %>").watermark("Enter your Email");
});
</script>
Now the problem is the watermark is showing very well for all the textboxes.If I try to login then the page will be doing postback then all the watermark from the textboxes disappears .
So what do I need to do in order not to remove all of them even though there is a postback.
You can try this simple trick
ReplyDelete<input type="text" value="Enter keyword here"
onfocus="if(this.value=='Enter keyword here'){this.value=''}"
onblur="if(this.value==''){this.value='Enter keyword here'}" />
Or You can try HTML 5 placeholder
<input type="text" name="first_name" placeholder="Your first name...">
When you refresh part of a page, the event bindings associated with the replaced elements are thrown out. You need to re-initialize the bindings to the replaced elements. You need to re-run the function inside watermark that does this.
