if ($("#nome").val() === ""){
    $("#nome::placeholder").css("color", "red");
    $("#nome").focus();
    return false;
}

My goal is set the color of placeholder for red if the name field is emptiness

I followed that example

But it didn’t work.

Where am I going wrong?

Note: The phocus works but the placeholder doesn’t stay red

jquery

  • Dude, but if the field isn’t empty like you want the placeholder to appear, if you type a . which is in the input the placeholde already goes away...

  • This answers your question? Change the "placeholder" color without affecting the "value" color"

  • in the case is when you submit the form that the check is done. In the form of the reply I posted, solves the problem!
