Is there any difference between placeholder and value attribute?

For example; ✔placeholder <input type="text" id="fname" name="fname"  placeholder="John"> ✍will display John in the text area ✔ value  <input type="text" id="fname" name="fname"  value="John"> ✍Will display John in the text area

Hi Mau'Kauba Nibabe you could have tried it first by yourself before posting the question and then answering it. This post will be reported under the offence "self-answer". It might as well be removed.

✍Hi Avinesh, I tried it and didn't realize the difference so I post the question. 🙏Then I waited for people to answer but no one did. ✔So I went back and tried doing it again, and then I realized the difference.

✍Got it: ✔The value attribute puts actual content inside of a form, so if you want to change it you have to delete it first. ✔While the placeholder attribute puts an image of content inside of a form, so when you click on the box and start typing it disapears. ✔ Placeholder is used more so to specify what the input box is for, were as the value will give a default value.
