Add span inside form's placeholder

Question

I wanna add a color asterix in my form\'s placeholder, is it possible?

Answer 1

This is a good case for pseudo-elements.

.someclass {
      position:relative;
}

.someclass:after {
      position:absolute;
      top:0;
      right:10px;
      content: "*";
      color:#ff0000
}

...adjust to your own layout.
