Not sure I understand your question? Disappear when you click inside the form? Is there text already in the boxes before you type…  
Post your code.

When you go into the website provided by the OP, in the bottom right corner, next to “Contact” it says “ENTER EMAIL ADDRESS”.

On pressing it, the text (“ENTER EMAIL ADDRESS”) dissappears.

Id like to know myself how the script for this goes.  
Have tried some code myself, but since I don’t know what Im doing, none of my tries worked.
