Hi,
I was wondering there is a way to add an HTML5 attribute like
placeholder to a text input tag within UIBinder or doing so otherwise
in normal Java code.
Thanks

You could call setAttribute on the UiField. This would look like the
following:
yourField.getElement().setAttribute(placeHolder,content of
placeholder);

I'd rather use setPropertyString though, given that there's a property
reflecting the attribute:
yourField.getElement().setPropertyString(placeholder, content of
placeholder);
(i.e. in JS, you'll more likely write myInputText.placeholder=content of
placeholder than
I created a simple subclass so that I can use the placeholder property in
UIBinder:
public class PlaceholderTextBox extends TextBox
{
public void setPlaceholder(String placeholder)
{
InputElement inputElement = getElement().cast();
inputElement.setAttribute(placeholder,
I tried a test using setPropertyString, and cannot get it to work. Am I
wrong in thinking that 'this[name] = value;' is not useful in this case b/c
placeHolder should be an actual element attribute rather than a property
that is referenced in js?

Works for me (tested in Chrome 10-dev using the Web inspector's JS console),
but it has to be placeholder with a lower-case h, not placeHolder.
