Using HTML Placeholder in Laravel 4

laravel, laravel-4, placeholder

Solution

{{ Form::text('username', Input::old('username'),  array('placeholder'=>'Username')) }}

This works for Laravel 4!!

Problem

``` {{ Form::text('username', Input::old('username')) }} ``` This is my code, I want to add Username as placeholder in the text box. I already use bootstrap in the project. I tried to use the example ``` {{ Form::text('username', 'Username', Input::old('username')) }} ``` But it gives a default value which needs to be deleted and then the user has to type his value. I want something like how it shows up on Twitter.com etc. Which gets erased once user types into it.
