Title
Body
When I try to set a text input to blank (when clicked) using $(this).value="" , this does not work. I have to use $(this).val('') . Why? What is the difference? What is the mechanism behind the val function in jQuery? $(document).ready(function() { $('#user_name').focus(function(){ $(this).val(''); }); }); // error code: not working... $(document).ready(function() { $('#user_name').focus(function(){ $(this).value=''; }); });
