For eg.  I would prefer to have a link like this in the head section.

<head>
   <script src="js/code.js"></script>
</head>

as oppose to like this.

<head>
      <script>
		var _debug = false;
		var _placeholderSupport = function() {
			var t = document.createElement("input");
			t.type = "text";
			return (typeof t.placeholder !== "undefined");
		}();

		window.onload = function() {
			var arrInputs = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
			var arrTextareas = document.getElementsByTagName("textarea");
			var combinedArray = [];
			for (var i = 0; i < arrInputs.length; i++)
				combinedArray.push(arrInputs[i]);
			for (var i = 0; i < arrTextareas.length; i++)
				combinedArray.push(arrTextareas[i]);
			for (var i = 0; i < combinedArray.length; i++) {
				var curInput = combinedArray[i];
				if (!curInput.type || curInput.type == "" || curInput.type == "text" || curInput.type == "textarea")
					HandlePlaceholder(curInput);
				else if (curInput.type == "password")
					ReplaceWithText(curInput);
			}

			if (!_placeholderSupport) {
				for (var i = 0; i < document.forms.length; i++) {
					var oForm = document.forms[i];
					if (oForm.attachEvent) {
						oForm.attachEvent("onsubmit", function() {
							PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm);
						});
					}
					else if (oForm.addEventListener)
						oForm.addEventListener("submit", function() {
							PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm);
						}, false);
				}
			}
		};

		function PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm) {    
			for (var i = 0; i < oForm.elements.length; i++) {
				var curElement = oForm.elements[i];
				HandlePlaceholderItemSubmit(curElement);
			}
		}

		function HandlePlaceholderItemSubmit(element) {
			if (element.name) {
				var curPlaceholder = element.getAttribute("placeholder");
				if (curPlaceholder && curPlaceholder.length > 0 && element.value === curPlaceholder) {
					element.value = "";
					window.setTimeout(function() {
						element.value = curPlaceholder;
					}, 100);
				}
			}
		}

		function ReplaceWithText(oPasswordTextbox) {
			if (_placeholderSupport)
				return;
			var oTextbox = document.createElement("input");
			oTextbox.type = "text";
			oTextbox.id = oPasswordTextbox.id;
			oTextbox.name = oPasswordTextbox.name;
			//oTextbox.style = oPasswordTextbox.style;
			oTextbox.className = oPasswordTextbox.className;
			for (var i = 0; i < oPasswordTextbox.attributes.length; i++) {
				var curName = oPasswordTextbox.attributes.item(i).nodeName;
				var curValue = oPasswordTextbox.attributes.item(i).nodeValue;
				if (curName !== "type" && curName !== "name") {
					oTextbox.setAttribute(curName, curValue);
				}
			}
			oTextbox.originalTextbox = oPasswordTextbox;
			oPasswordTextbox.parentNode.replaceChild(oTextbox, oPasswordTextbox);
			HandlePlaceholder(oTextbox);
			if (!_placeholderSupport) {
				oPasswordTextbox.onblur = function() {
					if (this.dummyTextbox && this.value.length === 0) {
						this.parentNode.replaceChild(this.dummyTextbox, this);
					}
				};
			}
		}

		function HandlePlaceholder(oTextbox) {
			if (!_placeholderSupport) {
				var curPlaceholder = oTextbox.getAttribute("placeholder");
				if (curPlaceholder && curPlaceholder.length > 0) {
					Debug("Placeholder found for input box '" + oTextbox.name + "': " + curPlaceholder);
					oTextbox.value = curPlaceholder;
					oTextbox.setAttribute("old_color", oTextbox.style.color);
					oTextbox.style.color = "#c0c0c0";
					oTextbox.onfocus = function() {
						var _this = this;
						if (this.originalTextbox) {
							_this = this.originalTextbox;
							_this.dummyTextbox = this;
							this.parentNode.replaceChild(this.originalTextbox, this);
							_this.focus();
						}
						Debug("input box '" + _this.name + "' focus");
						_this.style.color = _this.getAttribute("old_color");
						if (_this.value === curPlaceholder)
							_this.value = "";
					};
					oTextbox.onblur = function() {
						var _this = this;
						Debug("input box '" + _this.name + "' blur");
						if (_this.value === "") {
							_this.style.color = "#c0c0c0";
							_this.value = curPlaceholder;
						}
					};
				}
				else {
					Debug("input box '" + oTextbox.name + "' does not have placeholder attribute");
				}
			}
			else {
				Debug("browser has native support for placeholder");
			}
		}

		function Debug(msg) {
			if (typeof _debug !== "undefined" && _debug) {
				var oConsole = document.getElementById("Console");
				if (!oConsole) {
					oConsole = document.createElement("div");
					oConsole.id = "Console";
					document.body.appendChild(oConsole);
				}
				oConsole.innerHTML += msg + "<br />";
			}
		}
	</script>
</head>

How can I make that happen? I rather not show that awful long code in the head.
