FlowupLabels.js

===============

Augments form labels to behave like placeholders, but with a twist.

[SEE DEMO](http://enfos.com/FlowupLabels.js/demo/)

[Demo simulating disabled JS](http://enfos.com/FlowupLabels.js/demo/index-nojs.html)

Original concept by [Matt D. Smith](http://dribbble.com/shots/1254439--GIF-Mobile-Form-Interaction). Inspired by Mike Mitchell's [FloatLabel.js](https://github.com/m10l/FloatLabel.js).

Difference in this version: 

----

* The label gets out of the user's way immediately on focus

* Labels should be proceeded by a colon ":", to indicate that the user still has something to fill. Users commonly mistake placeholder labels as prefilled inputs, an example being the common "Search..."

* This implementation accounts for pre-filled elements on page load (toggleable)

* Uses semantic labels, not placeholders

Usage instructions

-----

* Add jquery.FlowupLabels.css to your stylesheets:

``` html

```

* Add jquery.FlowupLabels.js to your scripts.

``` html

```

* Wrap your form in the '.FlowupLabels' class

* Wrap your labels and inputs with the '.fl_wrap' class

* Give labels the '.fl_label' class

* Give inputs the '.fl_input' class

* Load the plugin

``` js

$('.FlowupLabels').FlowupLabels({

		/*

		These are all the default values

		You may exclude any/all of these options

		if you won't be changing them

		 */

		// Handles the possibility of having input boxes prefilled on page load

		feature_onLoadInit:	true, 

		

		// Class when focusing an input

		class_focused: 		'focused',

		// Class when an input has text entered

		class_populated: 	'populated'	

});

```

Compatibility
