Label definition and instructions for use

The label defines labels (tags) for input elements.

Label elements do not render any special effects to the user. H owever, it improves availability for mouse users. T his control is triggered if you click on the text within the label element. That is, when the user selects the label, the browser automatically turns the focus to the label-related form control.

The for property of the label should be the same as the id property of the related element.


Tips and comments

Tip: The "for" property binds the label to another element. Set the value of the "for" property to the value of the id property of the related element.
