vfpage html placeholer working fine in ie11 but not in ie9 on page refresh

<html>
<body>

<p>A function is triggered when the user is pressing a key in the input field.</p>

<input type="text" onkeypress="myFunction()" placeholder="test" >

<script>
function myFunction() {
    alert("You pressed a key inside the input field");
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

When the panel is getting refreshed the placeholder value is not being displayed.on a portal login

THis issue is only in IE9 but works fine in IE11,Chrome,Mozilla.

Basically the placeholder is not working properly.
Any thoughts on this would be helpful

Thanks

                $(function() {
                    // Invoke the plugin
                    $('input, textarea').placeholder({customClass:'my-placeholder'});
