Labeling Form Inputs
Swipe to show menu
Labels (<label>) are essential for linking text labels with form input elements, enhancing accessibility and user-friendliness. It's crucial that the for attribute of the <label> tag matches the id attribute of the associated input element.
Example:
<label for="username">Username:</label>
<input type="text" id="username" />
In the example above:
- When you click the
Username:label, it will automatically focus on the corresponding input field; - The
labelandinputare linked together using theforandidattributes, respectively; - Both
forandidattributes have the same value (username).
Let's make filling in the form easier by adding labels to the inputs from the previous example.
