title: The best placeholder polyfil script for ie7, ie8 and ie9
body: <p>Which placeholder polyfill script do you recommend that I use to provide placeholder support in ie7, 8 &amp; 9.</p>
  
  <p>I've seen the following <a href="https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-browser-Polyfills" rel="noreferrer">list</a> from the modernizer team and was wondering if anybody here had some mileage with them or any others not on the list and what they think is the <em>best</em></p>
  
  <p><strong>My criteria for evaluation would be:</strong></p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>File Size</li>
  <li>Ability to work without modernizer/yepnope</li>
  <li>Speed (no crazy looping)</li>
  <li>Stability, how much as it been used in the wild?</li>
  <li>Detect native placeholder ability and not bother running</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I remember a day when I used to write a line or so in the onclick event of an input for placeholder support - lol, but to be honest I can't bothered to support these horrible browsers (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyGP0ZyxF5E" rel="noreferrer">watch this funny</a>).  At least IE10 is finally moving in the right direction.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you...</p>
