    Use placeholder

    <input type="text"" name="<%=xtinct.item(i).getAttribute("col1")%>" placeholder="default text" />

    you need to use some jQuery for IE. Read this post –

    Edit:

    This will work on all browsers – 

    <input type="text" value="Your email" onblur="if(this.value == '') { this.value='Your email'}" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Your email') {this.value=''}">
