placeholder in ie9

I'm using placeholder for my textboxes. The problem is that in firefox and chrome they show up but in IE9 it's not working. I searched on the internet but none of the solutions worked for me. Any ideas?

<input class="text" type="text" name="name" value="" placeholder="Name" required /><br />

Answer 1

If you mean the placeholder attribute, it is not supported in IE9: http://caniuse.com/#search=placeholder. You will need to use another solution to mimic the behavior.

Answer 2

IE9 doesn't support HTML5's placeholder.

You need to do it with javascript.

Check this plugin.
