Hi Dilyan,

Isthat right you requirement is like Adding a placeholder in the background of the Field.

Placeholder are used to display the messages in the Inside of the Field.

Or

If you want to Display error message in Field. i.e, Someone enter the value in that field is not correct before save the record.

Thanks,

Hi Dilyan,

Its a Visualforce page Dilyan am using the Below link to done this.
http://docs.releasenotes.salesforce.com/en-us/winter14/release-notes/rn_186_vforce_html5_code_sample.htm

Its not possible to add it to Custom Fields yet may but only you can add a Help text in the Custom Field without VF.

Otherwise You will use the validation rule to Show the Error message in the top of the field if the Input value is not correct.

Let me know  if you need any further help from me...


Thanks,
Raj.

Hi Raj,

I understand it will require to use a visualforce page to display the information inside the field but because you've have menitioned that is possible to use validation rule to show error message in the top of the field if the typed value is not correct. Could you please advise and give an example how to create such validation rule and what to include in the validation rule in order to display the message I need?

Thanks,
Dilyan
