      Problem

      The Livesearch macro provides a placeholder attribute. However, that placeholder text isn't displayed consistently across browsers.

      Steps to reproduce
      1. Create a page in Confluence, and add the livesearch macro
      2. View the page in IE, and Chrome
      Expected Results
      1. The placeholder text can be easily distinguished from the text a user types
      Actual Results
      1. In Internet Explorer, the text is the same colour as the user types
      Workaround

      The following CSS ensures the colour of the placeholder text is consistent cross browser:

      ::-webkit-input-placeholder {
   color: #878787 !important;
}

:-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 18- */
   color: #878787 !important;
}

::-moz-placeholder {  /* Firefox 19+ */
   color: #878787 !important;
}

:-ms-input-placeholder {  
   color: #878787 !important;
}

            Just remove the Placeholdertext from Macro. Stops people from raising tickets, so I don't have to tell them, it won't be fixed!
