HTML5 SupportThe aim of HTML5 is to seamlessly provide support an extremely lightweight plugin for a few commonly used html5 attributes for browsers that don’t already support them.
HTML5 Support currently supports the placeholder attribute and the autofocus attribute. HTML5 Also supports type=“password” fields, by special casing them, and swapping elements.
¶ ↑
Example¶ ↑
HTML<input type=“text” autofocus /> <input type=“text” placeholder=“Search Here” name=“q” /> <input type=“password” placeholder=“Password” name=“pass” />
¶ ↑
jQuery$(document).ready(function() {
$.html5support();
// or you can also run only support for what you want
¶ ↑
CSSUse this CSS if you would like your placeholder text to show up grey in browsers that do not natively support placeholder.
.placeholder{ color: #888; }

TODOSupport could be added for more HTML5 features. Ideas:
-
<input pattern=“/regex/” />
