title: Placeholder attribute not supported in IE. Any suggestions?
body: <p>What do you all use to support placeholder attributes in browsers?</p>
  
  <p>Currently, am using:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://github.com/mathiasbynens/Placeholder-jQuery-Plugin">https://github.com/mathiasbynens/Placeholder-jQuery-Plugin</a></p>
  
  <p>Have also tried this plugin to no avail:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://github.com/danbentley/placeholder">https://github.com/danbentley/placeholder</a></p>
  
  <p>But it doesn't seem to work with IE... More specifically IE 8. Any other suggestions / alternatives?</p>
  
  <p>Should I forget about the placeholder attribute for now?</p>
