Creating a Tab Character within a Placeholder

I am creating a textarea which has a placeholder that shows what kind of information should be in the textarea. The only problem is, I need to use several special characters. The first is the line break, which I figured out can be created using this: 


			

However, I am still unsure of how to create a tab character within a placeholder. Is this possible? If so, what can I do to generate a tab character within a placeholder?

This is Horizontal Tab according to this:

	

<textarea name="textarea" rows="10" cols="50" placeholder='test&#x09;test2'></textarea></textarea>

Update: I have just tested it under FF 31 and Chrome 36 and it works good.
