Hi,

I am using multiline rich text columns on Portals which is giving me a textbox on portal forms. Now I would like to have a default text(Something like Please enter your comments here) to the text box in the background and when the user clicks on the box(Onclick) it should let the user type the info.

Any thoughts on how to do?

Please don't post the same question in multiple Power Pages forums.

There are a number of different ways that it can be done (none out of the box). Personally I would add the html placeholder attribute to the Input field in the JavaScript area for the form
$(document).ready(function () { $("#field_name").attr("placeholder", "the palceholder text to display" ); });
