    I've used this jquery plugin on a couple projects before. Generally I don't like hiding text like that too often, but it has its place.

    I use this plugin to validate my forms before processing them. A lot more elegant than the old-school javascript alert boxes I used to use back in the day:

    Remember jquery is just providing the functionality. You can style these examples to look however you want.

    The examples I linked are jquery plugins, but for really basic stuff you can write your own code very easily. It does help if you have a background in some kind of programming though.

    Best place to learn the basics is on the jquery website. The documentation there is killer.
