    Here is an example of a search box with the initial value ‘enter search string here’. A bit of javascript clears out the box when the control gets the focus and begins typing:

    <input name="txtSearch" id="txtSearch" onfocus="if (this.value=='enter search string here...') this.value = ''" value="enter search string here..." type="text">
