Attribute for <LABEL ...>
FOR = "text string"
If the form element that should be associated with the text in
<LABEL ...> can't be contained
within
<LABEL ...>, such as when the form element in another table cell, use
FOR. The value of
FOR is the
ID of the form element. Note that it is not the
name of the field (as given with the
NAME attribute) it is the
ID as given with the
ID attribute. So, for example, this code associates the text "join mailing list?" with the checkbox field that has the ID "joinlist":
This code:
<TABLE BORDER=1 CELLPADDING=5>
<TR> <TD><LABEL FOR="joinlist">join mailing list?</LABEL></TD>
<TD><INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="joinlist" ID="joinlist"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
produces this:
