Watermark doesn't work in a portal environment

[planetsizebrain]

I tried to use the watermark component as described in the showcase, but even in this simple case it doesn't work for me. As it works in the showcase I assume this again has something to do with the fact that we use Primefaces in a portal environment as other components and functionality that work in the showcase, haven't worked in a portal (Liferay in our case) before.

The behavior we see is that the watermark doesn't show up in the input field we pointed it to and the browser signals a Javascript error.

We're working with Primefaces 3.1.1, but I also tried 3.2, but there too I get the same error. The error we see in the Chrome web inspector is the following:

Code: Select all
