Question

I’d like to add an onfocus command to an array in Codeigniter. I generally add this code to my inputs:

onfocus="this.value=''"

This I’m using an array (see below) and need to know how to add onfocus to it (and if it can’t be done in an array, where can it be done?

$login = array(
    'name'  => 'login',
    'id'    => 'login',
    'value' => set_value('login', 'Email'),
);

and for the input:

<?php echo form_input($login); ?>

You can do this once the page is loaded to have a better control on it. Try this.

$(function(){
   //if you have a id to input element then you can use
   //id selector which is much better than attribute selector.
   $('input[name=login]').focus(function(){
       //Write your code here to do on focus
       //this.value = '';
   })
});
