Step 1) Click on Patterns button of textfield. Below dailog will open.

Step 2) Check Allow Empty and provide your placeholder text.

What do you mean and "how" are you using the form? With HCM P&F, yes, it is very easy to have "placeholders" and populate them as needed.

Hi Vijayalakshmi,

                        Use the following code in the script editor of the input field needed.

      document.getElementById("<input_field_name>").placeholder = "Search Google or type URL";
