if(!$.browser.webkit){
$("input").each(
        function(){
            $(this).data('holder',$(this).attr('placeholder'));
            $(this).focusin(function(){
                $(this).attr('placeholder','');
            });
            $(this).focusout(function(){
                $(this).attr('placeholder',$(this).data('holder'));
            });

        });

}
