Form checking does not work as expected

It seems you can fade the placeholder text in and out of you do something like this:

input.form-control::placeholder{
  color:red;font-weight:bold;text-indent:100px;transition:all 1s ease;
} 
input.form-control:focus::placeholder{color:rgba(255,255,255,0)}

(Not tested in anything else but chrome)

At present the test works using :focus so as I mentioned before change your js to add and remove classes and then you can tie that style change in to using a class instead of focus…

If I get a chance later I’ll do a demo.
