 * Hey, I’m sure this has been solved before but I can’t find any results with the
   tags I used.
 * My current setup for adding a comment is.
 * **1.** If the user is logged in do not show name, email or url input fields, 
   just the textarea.
 * **2.** If the user has left a comment before then remember and name, email and
   url and display it in the input value.
 * The Problem:
    **3.** If the user has never commented before then display the 
   name, email and url fields _blank_
 * _Blank_ is the problem. I want the text ‘Name’ ‘Email’ and ‘URL’ to appear in
   their appropriate fields.
    This did not used to be required because by default
   theme above the fields it says Name, Email and URL, but I have removed these 
   and want them to be shown in the input field.
 * Does anybody know how to do this?
    Would it help if I included my comment theme?
   Any help is appreciated. Thanks
