Solution 4

You can use PlaceHolder Attribute of textbox which is an html5 input attribute.

eg: Placeholder="UserName"

It'll act as the watermark..

Solution 1

It's not possible to watermark a textbox. And nothing is possible in terms of styling without css. Jscript is only useful if you use it to set css.
