XF 2.1 Textfield - Placeholder Text

[AlBundy]

Hi,
is there a possibility to put a placeholder-text into the textfield? (if possible without addon).
Perhaps only in selected forums/categorys.

Thanks !

[OzzModz] Thread & Quick Reply Placeholders & Templates

This is a cool little addon that will allow you to have thread/post templates and manage placeholders. These are set in each node individually by editing the node in the ACP. Place holders can be used to direct people to do or not do something...

Preferably not add on

Edit the forum_post_thread template and add:

<xf:if is="$forum.node_id == 1">
<xf:js>$("textarea[name='message_html']").html("Placeholder text");</xf:js>
</xf:if>

Change the node ID and text as required.

I tried this and it works in posting a thread, how about posting a reply? I need to edit the placeholder too
