Question

I’m trying to make some input fields that I would like to work like Twitter’s registration form.

1. On focus the value text becomes light grey.
2. When you start typing the light grey default value disappears completely and the user-written text becomes #000000.
3. If you don’t write anything and go out of focus the default text appears again.

How to achieve with jQuery?
