I have a text field which says '--Enter your Email Address--' in the text field when the page is first loaded.
When the user clicks in the box I want the '--Enter your Email Address--' text to disappear.
At the moment it just stays in and I have to delete it before typing the email address.
Does anyone know how to make the text disappear once it is clicked on?

You need to use Javascript.

Also spot on and works for my text area where the javascript one doesn't. Cheers!
