Hi Abhishek
I first tried this:
form.element(_id='center_manager_email')['_placeholder']='Enter Email'
and the i also tried your solution:
{{register_form.element('input#auth_user_username')['_placeholder'] =
'Username'}}
But in both cases i get the error - <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>
'NoneType' object does not support item assignment
What exactly are the lines to add placeholder in web2py login forms. Please
suggest
