Floating Label
A floating label is a placeholder text for form or input fields, which floats above that field and remains visible once the user starts interacting with that field.
To implement a floating label in the Kendo UI for jQuery DatePicker, define it either as a string or from a function.
The following example demonstrates how to set the floating label as a string:
<input id="datepicker" />
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#datepicker").kendoDatePicker({
dataTextField:"text",
label: {
content: "Select a date...",
floating: true
}
});
});
</script>
The following example demonstrates how to set the floating label from a function:
<input id="datepicker" />
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#datepicker").kendoDatePicker({
label: {
content: function(){
return "Select a date...";
},
floating: true
}
});
});
</script>
