Input text field question: Flash 8 Prof

[dmastin]

I am trying to populate an input text box with grayed-out text, such as "enter a username", that dissapears when the viewer clicks it to type in their info. Any help?

Maybe its disappearing to make room for the user to type something in the input text box?

You can do this with javascript. Try to find some tutorials through google maybe. Not sure the exact script from the top of my head here, but I don't believe it should be difficult to find.

maybe try search with
