How does the "placeholder" attribute differ from the "Value" attribute in PHP form fields?

The "placeholder" attribute is used to provide a hint or example of the expected input in a form field, which is displayed as a grayed-out text until the user starts typing. On the other hand, the "value" attribute sets the initial value of the form field, which is displayed as the actual input. To implement the fix, you can use the "placeholder" attribute to provide a hint or example text in the form field, while setting the "value" attribute to an empty string or a default value if needed. 

<input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Enter your username" value="">
