I am trying to create a form with shaded text form fields. when you type in a field and then back space or delete the text, the shading (and or the text field) disappear. any suggestions on how to be able to edit the answer on a form without this problem? This will be a template that is used repeatedly to enter info on different case logs. thanks-
