* jQuery.labelify - Display in-textbox hints
* Stuart Langridge, http://www.kryogenix.org/
* Released into the public domain
* Date: 25th June 2008
* @author Stuart Langridge
* @version 1.3
*
*
* Basic calling syntax: $("input").labelify();
* Defaults to taking the in-field label from the field's title attribute
*
* You can also pass an options object with the following keys:
*   text
*     "title" to get the in-field label from the field's title attribute 
*      (this is the default)
*     "label" to get the in-field label from the inner text of the field's label
*      (note that the label must be attached to the field with for="fieldid")
*     a function which takes one parameter, the input field, and returns
*      whatever text it likes
*
*   labelledClass
*     a class that will be applied to the input field when it contains the
*      label and removed when it contains user input. Defaults to blank.
*
