Found an issue when trying to use bs3.form() and have a placeholder

In the following scenario if you have something like this in your db.py to 
modify your field to use an HTML5 placeholder:

*db.table_name.row_name.widget = lambda field, value: 
SQLFORM.widgets.string.widget(field, value, _placeholder=T('Placeholder 
text'))*

If this field in set with requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(), then once you try to 
submit this - it will try and use old formatting for the text field.
To counter this problem - use the following to adjust the widget and keep 
styling consistent with Bootstrap 3:

*db.table_name.row_name.widget = lambda field, value: 
SQLFORM.widgets.string.widget(field, value, _class='form-control string', 
_placeholder=T('Placeholder text'))*
