 * Is there a way to use the placeholder attribute in FSCF?

 * You can do this like for If you want this for Phone option.
    On the form edit
   page go to the field you have for Phone and add a “Default value:” (xxx)xxx-xxxx
   Next, add this to the “Attributes:” onfocus=”if(this.value=='(xxx)xxx-xxxx’)this.
   value=”;”onblur=”if(this.value==”)this.value='(xxx)xxx-xxxx’;”
 * Thanks

 * This very much looks like the fallback for browsers that don’t support HTML5.
   Besides, I could only use this trick on extra fields, not the standard ones. 
   So this is not really what I’m after.
 * Thanks anyway!

 * Basically there is not any other solution for this issue. This is the only solution
   or you have to use manually jquery code in theme’s template file.
