Attribute Default Value Options

[RainLover]

Can you get an attribute default value so you don't have to repeat it in the following example:

CODE

<p title="foo" id="p">Hello, world!</p>
<input type="text" id="i">
<script>
    var p = document.getElementById('p'),
        i = document.getElementById('i');
    i.oninput = function () {
        p.title = this.value;
        if (this.value == 'bar') {
            p.title = 'foo';
        }
    };
</script>

DEMO

Is there something like p.title = p.title.defaultValue as we use for text fields?

You are talking about the tool tip that pops up when you hover over an element? As far as I know, there is no default value for the title attribute. The coder provides any title they want so I guess the defaultValue would be blank.

Another idea is to store the default title value in a variable.
