I D and Label For

The I D identifier is used inserted in the "Input" tag and used in conjunction with the Label For identifier to associate a text label with data input. Although forms can be made accessible through linear structure, using the Label For and I D identifiers will ensure that screen readers properly link labels and input.

For more detail see the Forms page.

Code Example:

<tr>
<td>
<label for:"FirstName">First name:</label>
</td>
 
<td> 
<input type="text" name="fn" id="FirstName">
</td>

</tr>

Browsers

Internet Explorer supports the Label For and I D identifiers. Netscape Navigator does not.
