was testing simple form html as follows:


<style type="text/css"> </style>

<form> Username: <input type="text" name="username" value="Enter Name Here">


Text for the "value" attribute "Enter Name Here" did not display when page rendered in FF 15.0.1, but does fine in other mentioned browsers.

</form>

Hi madperson, I went thru the troubleshooting steps with no change in the problem, but doing a full reset worked. Thanks :0)

Also: How do I mark a problem as solved? If there's a button, I'm just not seeing it.

ok thanks for reporting back - by marking the prior answer as solution the question is considered as solved.
