http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10906 --- Comment #3 from Joshue O Connor <joshue.oconnor@cfit.ie> 2010-11-09 16:52:31 UTC --- The placeholder attribute, this attribute can be used on form elements to predefine text that disappears as soon as the field gets focus. It's a visual indication of what is expected in the field. If, and only if, the field has no label otherwise, this placeholder text will be used to generate the AccessibleName, the name the screen reader speaks for the field when it gains focus. If the field has a label provided by the label element or an ARIA construct, the placeholder text will be ignored.
