Add data fields and placeholder to form inputs

Davs Howard asked on July 23, 2015 16:02

I'd like to be able to add data fields and placeholder text to a forms layout/output.

Is this possible? I'm trying to achieve the following:

<input class="animated hideme" data-animated="fadeInLeft" data-animation-delay="100" type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name">
<input class="animated hideme" data-animated="fadeInLeft" data-animation-delay="300" type="text" name="jobtitle" placeholder="Job Title">
<input class="animated hideme" data-animated="fadeInLeft" data-animation-delay="500" type="text" name="company" placeholder="Company">
<input class="animated hideme" data-animated="fadeInLeft" data-animation-delay="700" type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email">
text<input class="animated hideme" data-animated="fadeInLeft" data-animation-delay="900" type="submit" name="submit">

Prefer a native solution if possible but have achieved this with jQuery as Roman suggested.

$('input[type="text"]').each(function() { 
    var $this = $(this); 
    $this.attr("placeholder", $this.attr("value")).removeAttr("value"); 
});

David, I guess the easiest way to do that is to embed them with javascript/jquery

I had a website regarding video animation and I faced many problem regarding coding but I found best video animation companies near me who solved my problem smoothly. I think you should also hire someone to resolve your problem.
