This is a Javascript that will erase and replace a string of default text for an input element on a web form when the users clicks into or out of a field. I have probably written forms of this script about a thousand times in about a thousand different ways, however this is one of more elegant ways I have done it and I wanted to record it here. You can see a working version of this script by clicking here.

Anyone is welcome to use this script, all I ask is for you to maintain the credits (and maybe leave me a comment).
