Note: Placeholder Text
Similar functionality can be produced in modern browsers using the
placeholder
attribute in the HTML markup. Simply change the input
field to the following in index.htm:
<input type="text" name="search-box"
↵
placeholder="Search Here">
This has slightly different behavior in that the placeholder text is not actu-
ally a value of the input field, so it won't be submitted as the field's value if
the user fails to fill it in.
