Change placeholder

[Adrian Stoch]

Quick simple request please:
Can you advise on how to change placeholder of a text area programmatically.

[Kateryna Grynko]

Hi Adrian,

Please try the following code:preApperyio("mobiletextarea_X").attr("placeholder", "Some text");/preWhere mobiletextarea_X is a textarea name and Some text is any text you need.

Perfect, thanks Katya.

How would I change the font color of the placeholder text with javascript?
I tried

pre
Apperyio("inputName").attr("placeholder", "some text ").css('color','#ff0000');
/pre

and

pre
$("[name=a1]").attr("placeholder", "some text ").css('color','#ff0000');
/pre

They both changed the placeholder text to 'some text'
but neither of these changed the text color.
