title: Using HTML Placeholder in Laravel 4
body: <pre><code>{{ Form::text('username', Input::old('username')) }}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is my code, I want to add Username as placeholder in the text box. I already use bootstrap in the project.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to use the example</p>
  
  <pre><code>{{ Form::text('username', 'Username', Input::old('username')) }}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it gives a default value which needs to be deleted and then the user has to type his value. I want something like how it shows up on Twitter.com etc. Which gets erased once user types into it.</p>
