속성

이 요소는 global attributes를 포함하고 있습니다.

accesskey HTML 4 HTML5

A shortcut key to access this element from the keyboard.

for

The ID of a labelable form-related element in the same document as the label element. The first such element in the document with an ID matching the value of the for attribute is the labeled control for this label element.

Note: A label element can have both a for attribute and a contained control element, as long as the for attribute points to the contained control element.

form HTML5

The form element that the label element is associated with (its form owner). The value of the attribute must be an ID of a <form> element in the same document. If this attribute is not specified, this <label> element must be a descendant of a <form> element. This attribute enables you to place label elements anywhere within a document, not just as descendants of their form elements.

참고

Click events in nested <label> elements

Starting with Gecko 8.0 (Firefox 8.0 / Thunderbird 8.0 / SeaMonkey 2.5), a bubbling click event triggers at most one <label>, and the synthetic click event cannot trigger additional <label>s. In Gecko, a click event will still bubble up past a <label>, while in WebKit or Internet Explorer the click event will stop at the <label>. The behavior prior to Gecko 8.0 (triggering multiple <label>s) caused Firefox to stop responding (see bug 646157).
