Setting value with jQuery causes placeholder issue in IE

    Hello everybody,

    As described in my title, I’m setting some dynamic values in my inputfields regarding current user info.

    I’m simply doing that like this:

    $('#inputid').attr('value', $('.inputvalue').text() );

    This works great in modern browsers like Chrome and Firefox, but not in IE. In IE the dynamic value is set as the placeholder.

    Is there anyway I can prevent this from happening?

    The url is: http://goo.gl/Cc8JtL
    You can use ‘1111111’ as logincode that you can enter in the popup.

    Hoping for help!
