Improved it a little bit - say you have enter a search term, click away from the box by accident and click back on it, it will clear the contents. This coding will check to see if anything apart from the default text is in the box, and if the default text is not in the box, will not clear it.

value="{$lng.lbl_my_text}" onFocus="if(this.value=='{$lng.lbl_my_text}') this.value='';" onBlur="if(this.value=='') this.value='{$lng.lbl_my_text}';" />
