Hi experts,
I want to add placeholders for textboxes on my Entity form. Is there a way were we can have this implemented through the Entity form metadata or anything else?
Below is the image how it should look like.
Let me know if you need any more clarification.
Regards,
Sagar

Can you please share the Jscript you used. I am getting some errors in my Jscript. Thanks
You can do this with jquery:
$(document).ready(function () {
// Add Placeholders for Tax Information
$("#new_ein").attr("placeholder", "Enter your Tax Id (with no dashes)" );
$("#new_ssn").attr("placeholder", "Enter your Social Security Number (with no dashes)" );
});
Hi Sagar,
You could add the text using the Attribute Metadata - Add Description property but this would place the text to the following location (and *not* inside the field as watermark)-
1. Above the field
2. Below the field
3. Above the Lable

If you are looking for the exact look & feel then you need to write some JavaScript to achieve that (as suggested by Alex above).
Hope this helps.
Hi Ravi,
This is regarding the placeholder text not the value added in the text box from the CRM.

Hi Sagar,
I am not exactly sure what you are looking for as this comes by default if you have a multi line textbox in CRM. Check the below layout of Entity Form & CRM Form.
Entity Form
CRM FORM
Hope this helps
Hi,
I think the best you can do (if you want it to work exactly like that) is to create an html web resource. Have a text box there, add some javascript.. then, in the on-load, initialize that web resource from the field value. Once the text in that text box is updated, push it back to the underlying Dynamics field (through javascript again)
Hi Tino,
Thanks for your response.
Yes, I have tried that but that is not what I am after.
Having a placeholder on the textboxes will be more informative as users won't be aware of the hover feature and it is not very user friendly.
Thanks.
Hi Sagar,
have you checked the tooltip functionality?
This is not exactly meeting your requirements as tooltips are only exposed when the user hovers over the field, but it is a supported functionality to give some more info to the Portal user.

Tino
