I tried the URL from Bushan here above, and the page no longer exists!

It is 6 years old, things have changed.

The latest version of the page available was for Jira 6.4 and is at https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira064/creating-help-for-a-custom-field-720412166.html

I don't think the option there works any more though, Atlassian have been gradually removing the ability to do bad things with Javascript from Jira.  You can try it, but I don't think it will work, and I would not recommend doing it at all.
