Class Label

java.lang.Object

org.fireweb.Element

org.fireweb.html.Label

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class Label
extends Element

The <label> tag defines a label for an input element. The label element does not render as anything special for the user. However, it provides a usability improvement for mouse users, because if the user clicks on the text within the label element, it toggles the control. The for attribute of the <label> tag should be equal to the id attribute of the related element to bind them together.
