title: How do I get placeholder text in firefox and other browsers that don't support the html5 tag option?
body: <p>This works in Chrome and any other browser that supports placeholder text in HTML5</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input id="name" name="name"  type="text" placeholder="Please enter your name..." required /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But, it doesn't work in 3.5 and earlier of Firefox, and obviously IE8, and possibly other browsers.</p>
  
  <p>How do I achieve the same thing (preferably in HTML/CSS - if not I am open to suggestions), to support all the older browsers? If not every single browser, at least Firefox and IE.</p>
  
  <p>Safari and Chrome already support it (or the latest versions anyway).</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
