}[HTML]<h3>Enter Parcel ID (PID), address or owner</h3><form action="javascript:viewer.parcelSearch()"> <input id="parcel_search_value" dojoType="dijit.form.TextBox" placeholder="PID, address or owner" style="width:250px; font-size:14px;" /> <br /> <div dojoType="dijit.form.Button" iconClass="iconSearch" type="submit" style="margin-top:8px;">SEARCH</div></form><div id="parcel_search_info" style="margin-top:4px;"></div>[/HTML]This is a query, but the same principle. Other point of info options include a dialog, tooltip, js alert, etc. I saw a pretty cool one the other day that displayed info in the textbox itself with different colored text.
