When label tag should be used over span or dev in form?
Example:
option1-span:
<form action="">
<span>Name:</span><input type="text">
<input type="submit" />
</form>
option2-label:
<form action="">
<label>Name:</label><input type="text">
<input type="submit" />
</form>
option3-div:
<form action="">
<div style="display:inline;">Name:</div><input type="text">
<input type="submit" />
</form>
Thanks
This is what label tags are for:
<form action="">
<label for="txt">Name:</label><input type="text" id="txt" name="txt" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
Then clicking on the label will focus on the input element.
The label tag is primarily used along with the for attribute. This aids in web accessibility of forms. For example
<form>
<label for="firstName">First name:</label>
<input type="text" name="firstName" value=""/>
</form>
By using the for tag, we can essentially associate the text "First Name:" with the input field having the name = "firstName".
Aside from that it has other attributes allowed but the span is more regularly used for styling markup.

(This is a copied answer)
Try this approach see if it works.
Add a click event to your anchor tag as below and do a event.stopPropagation()
$('a').on('click', function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
})`
See if this works
I want to display the first input[email] and my button in one line and make the rest in another line, Also want to disable default style for my checkbox and display it with transparent background.
<form method="post" name="form_BE_box" action="">
<input type="email" name="mail" placeholder="Votre adresse mail" id="MAIL"/>
<button class="button" type="submit">S'inscrire</button><br/>
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked" value="Partenaire" name="fou" /> Cochez ici pour s'inscrire aux communications partenaire
</form>
You can include your input into a div. Here is a working jsfiddle.
And regarding the checkbox you can take a look at this answer: stackoverflow
<form method="post" name="form_BE_box" action="">
<input type="email" name="mail" placeholder="Votre adresse mail" id="MAIL"/>
<button class="button" type="submit">S'inscrire</button>
<div>
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked" value="Partenaire" name="fou" /> Cochez ici pour s'inscrire aux communications partenaire
</div>
</form>
<form className="pure-form">
<fieldset>
<input ref="email" type="email" placeholder="Email"

<input ref="password" type="password" placeholder="Password"
value={this.state.passwordInput}
onChange={this.handleChange}

<label htmlFor="remember">
<input ref="remember" id="remember" type="checkbox" /> Remember me?
</label>
<button onClick={this.handleLoginClick} type="submit" className="pure-button pure-button-primary">Sign in</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
I just copy-pasted the example form from Purecss.io.
How come everything sticks together? Why do they have no margin?
You have the classes incorrectly added:
<form className="pure-form">
should be
<form class="pure-form">
...and so on.
<link href="http://yui.yahooapis.com/pure/0.6.0/pure-min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<form class="pure-form">
<fieldset>
<input red="email" type="email" placeholder="Email" />
<input ref="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" />
<label htmlFor="remember">
<input ref="remember" id="remember" type="checkbox" />Remember me?
</label>
<button onClick={this.handleLoginClick} type="submit" class="pure-button pure-button-primary">Sign in</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
Paulie_D is correct if you want to call any css class on any html tag then you need to follow the syntax like this
<tag class="classname"></tag>
Eg:
<form class="pure-form">
form elements goes here
</form>
I'm trying to submit a form with zombie.js, and pressButton() is failing with "Error: No BUTTON 'xxx'", where xxx is the selector. Here is the app:
var Browser = require('zombie');
b = new Browser();
b.visit('https://www.example.com/login/', function() {
b.
fill('name', 'My Name').
fill('code', 'My Code').
pressButton('submit', function() {
console.log(b.html());
});
});
And here is the form:
<form method="post" class="login">
<p> <label for="name"> <span id="nameprompt">Your Name:</span> </label> </p>
<input name="name" id="name" value="" size="40" maxlength="40" />
<p> <label for="code"> <span id="codeprompt">Bar Code</span> </label> </p>
<input name="code" id="code" type="PASSWORD" value="" size="40" maxlength="40" />
<div class="formButtonArea">
<input type="image" src="/screens/pat_submit.gif" border="0" name="submit" value="submit" />
</div>
</form>
I've tried a bunch of selectors including things like ".formButtonArea input" in addition to the obvious "submit" with no success.
What am I doing wrong?
It seems like you need the input to be of type="submit" (or type="button" perhaps). According to https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/zombie-js/8L0_Cpn8vVU, where the author comments on clickLink, it's likely that clickButton will do the same: find buttons and then fire click.
Hope it helps.
is it wrong if I use span-x to define element width?
<div class="search span-7 prepend-17 last">
<fieldset>
<form action="index.php" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="page" value="found"/>
<input class="span-4" type="text" MAXLENGTH="25" placeholder="Enter text to search" name="search"/>
<input class="span-3 last" type="submit" value="search" />
</form>
</fieldset>
</div>
Not at all. Span only assigns a width, float and margin. As long as this is what you want for your element there's no problem using it.
