Set focus to watermarked textbox on button click

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I was trying to use the watermark plug-in for jquery Version 3.0.6.

When I apply the watertext for input conrol it is working fine.
But when I am trying to set the focus for the watermarked input control on the 
button click event, focus will be at the end of the watermark and when I try to 
key-in some text it is appending to the watermarked text.

I am trying for to integrate watermark for asp.net textbox control.

Please find the attached HTMl source for the same to reproduce.

Note:To reproduce just the change the path of the Jquery and watermark script 
files.

Please let me know your suggestions to solve the above issue.

Thanks 
Prabahakr

You are using a third-party JavaScript function to set the focus to the text 
box, rather than simply focusing it directly.

Instead of using WebForm_AutoFocus('MyTextBox2'); at the bottom of your page, 
use:

$("#MyTextBox2").focus();
