Next, the Label field associates a textual
label with the form object you are inserting. It does this by inserting ... tags in your
form. This label is visible in the browser window. By using the tag, you can explicitly associate the
text with a particular control. You have two options for achieving this association:
n Wrap With Label Tag: This option encloses the form element within the ...
pair. Here??™s an example of its construct:
First Name

n Attach Label Tag Using for Attribute: This option adds an attribute to the tag that
matches the id attribute of the form element. Choose this option, for example, when you use a
table to align form elements, and the label and control appear in separate table cells. Here??™s an
example that illustrates the use of the for attribute:
First Name

You can also insert a ... pair by clicking the Label button in the Forms
category of the Insert bar. This button is best used in Code view.
Although you may visually achieve the same effect by simply typing the text in the Document window, a
nonvisual browser cannot associate plain text with any particular object.
