<html>
<body>
Date: <input type=text id=txt placeholder= />
</body>
</html>
What should i specify inside placehoder quotes so that i can view current date in my textbox
These are one of the soultions how to display current date in textbox:
1. JAVASCRIPT SOLUTION
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body onload=myFunction()>
Date: <input type=text id=demo/>
<script>
function myFunction() {
document.getElementById('demo').value= Date();
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
EDIT
Instead of value, in the same way by id, you could set the placeholder as you wish:
document.getElementById('demo').placeholder= Date();
2. JQUERY SOLUTION
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src=http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js></script>
</head>
<body onload=myFunction()>
Date: <input type=text id=demo/>
<script>
function myFunction() {
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#demo').attr(placeholder, Date());
});
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
I think this will help you.
