Created May 31, 2009 20:33
/*
This JS class allows an easy and clean way to assign a "field hint" on input elements' values

Next problem was a few seconds into running `make`, it would croak with an error from the linker about being unable to find the symbol "boost::system::get_system_category" - this was fixed by editing cmake/FindBoost.cmake and replacing the whole section (if root matches boost-[0-9]) -> endif with just:
