  Mon Mar 07 05:44:53 2005 SREZIC [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: Implement <label for="..."> for checkboxes and radiobuttons
It would be nice if the checkbox, checkbox_group and radio_group subroutines create a <label> tag for the checkbox/radiobutton label. Latest versions of Mozilla and Opera use this information to make the label clickable to select or deselect the corresponding checkbox/radiobutton, just like it works in normal GUI applications. Here's how the generated HTML could look like: <input id="cb1" type="checkbox"><label for="cb1">The checkbox label</label> Using this feature requires the existance of an id for the checkbox/radiobutton, which could be hard to autogenerate with CGI.pm. Regards, Slaven

Thanks for the report. I have confirmed that if XHTML output is requested, then <label> tags are generated with 3.43. I believe this bug report can be considered "resolved". On Mon Mar 07 05:44:53 2005, SREZIC wrote: Show quoted text
