jQuery plugin that implements the HTML5 placeholder attribute in JavaScript. If the browser has support for the new HTML5 placeholder attribute then the plugin will default to that instead of a JavaScript powered version.

Simply create a label element with the for attribute as the id of the target element that you want to have a placeholder on, then run the placeholder function.

Example:
<html>
	<head>
		<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript">
			$(function(){
				$('label_for_some_input').placeholder();
			});
		</script>
	</head>
	<body>
		<label id="label_for_some_input" for="some_input">Some Input!</label>
		<input type="text" id="some_input"/>
	</body>
</html>
