Hey there,

I'm trying to find a way to clear the default values out of some text fields when a user clicks on them or tabs into them.  I know how to do it when the user simply clicks on the text field (onClick = "this.value=''"), but not sure how to determine if the user has entered the text field via a tab click.

Any tips are appreciated.  Thanks.

don't use onClick...use onFocus

onFocus = "this.value=''"
