What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open the demo page of watermark in IE7/IE8 (non-local)
2. navigate input field by pressing "Tab" continuously
3. release "Tab" button, and the input field shifting like dancing.

Thanks a lot!

This is a minor browser bug in IE8 and lower.  It's such an edge case that 
extra 
bloat code to detect a user holding down the Tab key continuously seems 
unnecessary.

Of course, if you have a small snippet of code that you feel would fix the 
browser 
bug, I would be happy to evaluate it and add it to the plugin if it works.

The IE9 browser preview fixes this browser bug, BTW.

This is happening in IE9 and Chrome 30.0.1599.101

In my form I have about 60 controls in one row and when I hold tab button to 
navigate to the right page just freezes (in some cases) or in other cases 
cursor starts shifting between fields like dancing. And this is happening in 
both IE9 and Chrome 30.0.1599.101.

Demo page is working fine in both IE9 and Chrome 30.0.1599.101, I suspect that 
I have this issue because of the number of controls in the row.

Can you please help me to fix this issue?

Thanks!
