Clear default values in Gravity Forms and place them back in on blur if they are empty

clear_gravity_form_default_values.js

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

    jQuery.fn.cleardefault = function() {
    	return this.focus(function() {
    		if( this.value == this.defaultValue ) {
    			this.value = "";
    		}
    	}).blur(function() {
    		if( !this.value.length ) {
    			this.value = this.defaultValue;
    		}
    	});
    };
    jQuery(".gform_wrapper input[type='text'], .gform_wrapper input[type='email'], .gform_wrapper input[type='tel'], .gform_wrapper input[type='search'], .gform_wrapper input[type='url'], .gform_wrapper input[type='number'], .gform_wrapper textarea").cleardefault();
});

Of course this should be enqueue in WordPress properly with a function in php such as:

Thanks for the great snippet!

Yes, thanks! Works great.

How about the onfocus after form is submitted and not all required fields are filled out? Script doesn't work after that. Please advice

add this to the top makes it easier $('form li').addClass('clearit');
