I want a user to be able to customize their personal url page on my site, where the value of a text box will be “example.com/username” but I want the “example.com/” to be in the text box but not editable

Tumblr does this but I can’t figure out how: http://www.tumblr.com/register

    This is the code in question from the Tumblr page.

         <input type="text" class="text_field" style="padding:0px; border-width:0px; text-align:right; width:325px; background:transparent;"
    id="tumblelog_name" name="tumblelog[name]"
                                            onfocus="$('tumblelog_name_background').style.backgroundColor = '#f9f8e4'; $('tumblelog_name_background').style.color = ''" onblur="$('tumblelog_name_background').style.backgroundColor = ''; if($('tumblelog_name').value == '') 
{ $('tumblelog_name_background').style.color = '#c1cfdd' }"/>.tumblr.com

    As you can see the additional .tumblr.com is not part of the input text box at all. It’s a div that is styled to look like the text input box next to it. Therefore giving it the illusion of an unwritable input text field.
