This way, both onfocus and onblur event will work

//script tag starts
function myFocus(element) {
     if (element.value == element.defaultValue) {
       element.value = '';
     }
   }
   function myBlur(element) {
     if (element.value == '') {
       element.value = element.defaultValue;
     }
   }
//script tag ends


echo form_input('username', 'Username', 'class="login_input" onfocus="myFocus(this);" onblur="myBlur(this);" ');

Try:

echo form_input('username', 'Username', 'class="login_input" onfocus="this.value=\'\'"');

Try this

echo form_input('username', 'Username', 'class="login_input" onblur="if (this.value == \'\') {this.value = \'Custom\';}"  onfocus="if (this.value == \'Custom\') {this.value = \'\';}" value="Custom"');
