I can easily create a html input field that has text already in it. But when the user clicks on the input field the text doesn't disappears but stays there. The user then has to manually remove the text to type. How can I create an input field where when the user clicks on the input field box the text then disappear?

Use the placeholder attribute. The text disappears when the user starts typing. This is an example of a project I am working on:
<div class="" id="search-form">
<input type="text" name="" value="" class="form-control" placeholder="Search..." >
</div>
