I am trying to figure out how to insert the words ENTER NAME on the name field and ENTER YOUR EMAIL into the Email field on the auto responder.
so that when the person see’s the fields they know what to do.

I have looked everywhere in the files can someone help
I am trying to insert this code into my own auto-reponder

value=”Enter your name” and “Enter your email” into your email field

Here is my code. where would i put the value into the code below
________________________________________________

<form method=”post” onsubmit=”return BFTValidate(this);”>
<p><label>Name:</label> <input type=”text” name=”user_name”></p>
<p><label>Email:</label> <input type=”text” name=”email”></p>
<p align=”center”><input type=”submit” value=”Register”></p>
<input type=”hidden” name=”bft” value=”register”>
</form>

<script type=”text/javascript” >
function BFTValidate(frm) {
var email = frm.email.value;
if(email==”” || email.indexOf(“@”)<1 ||email.indexOf(“.”)<1) {
alert(“Please fill in valid email address!”);
frm.email.focus();
return false;
}

return true;

Much better option:

`<p><label>Name:</label> <input type=”text” name=”user_name” placeholder=”Enter name”></p>
<p><label>Email:</label> <input type=”text” name=”email” placeholder=”Enter email”></p>

Thank You Prasunsen. However I did try that and it didn’t work this is a BFT aUtorepsonder script and no word back from the author yet.

I am the author and I am sure it works. If it doesn’t please send me link to have a look.

And please don’t forget that software is made by humans, we want to have a break at least these few days of the year just like everyone else.

Oh I agree thats what I am telling my people as well 🙂

I may have missed a step but this is what i did

<form method=”post” onsubmit=”return BFTValidate(this);”>
<p><label>Name:</label> <input type=”text” name=”user_name” placeholder=”Enter name”></p>
<p><label>Email:</label> <input type=”text” name=”email” placeholder=”Enter email”></p>
<p align=”center”><input type=”submit” value=”Register”></p>
<input type=”hidden” name=”bft” value=”register”>
</form>

<script type=”text/javascript” >
function BFTValidate(frm) {
var email = frm.email.value;
if(email==”” || email.indexOf(“@”)<1 ||email.indexOf(“.”)<1) {
alert(“Please fill in valid email address!”);
frm.email.focus();
return false;
}

return true;
}
</script>

If I could add this is in the script in the editor area of the plugin it would be in every were I use it instead of having to add it manually every time. Thank you for your help and enjoy what you can with family and friends this holiday

I sent you an email with a version that will have the placeholder by default everywhere.

If for some reason you want value, you can change “placeholder” to “value” in the files but I see no reason for this. HTML 5 is now supported by all modern browsers and placeholder is better because when you click on it, the value disappears and you can type your name / email.

Thank you and have great holidays as well.

Looking at this again, if this: http://abetterway2b.com/2/how-to-join-dubli is your URL, it doesn’t have the code you are showing here. If you open “view source” you’ll see it doesn’t have the codes:
```
<input name="email" value="" id="" onfocus="if(this.value =='' ) this.value=''" onblur="if(this.value=='') this.value=''" style="color:#CCCCCC!important;
						font-size:14px!important;
						font-family:Georgia, serif !important;
						width:250px!important;
						height:25px!important;
						padding:0px!important;
						background:#FFFFFF!important;
						border:1px #FFFFFF dashed;!important;
						float:left;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-align:left;" />
```
Maybe this is because you are using the shortcode, I don’t know.

FYI, what I sent you by email is the pro version, while your example here and the URL are the free version.
