Should we use <label> for every input? , even for submit button and keep hidden thorough css if we don't want to show label.
or no need of label for submit button?
.hide {display:none}
<fieldset>
<legend>Search</legend>
<label for="Search">Search...</label>
<input value="" id="Search" name="Search">
<label for="Submit" class="hide">Submit</label>
<input type="submit" value="Go!" name="submit" id="submit">
</fieldset>
or we should use like this (no label for submit)
<fieldset>
<legend>Search</legend>
<label for="Search">Search...</label>
<input value="" id="Search" name="Search">
<input type="submit" value="Go!" name="submit" >
</fieldset>
No. Don't use labels for elements which have intrinsic label text (e.g. all kinds of buttons). (Note: Faking a label with the value attribute doesn't count).
See the description section of the WCAG section on the subject.
From the official documentation:
The LABEL element may be used to
attach information to controls. Each
LABEL element is associated with
exactly one form control.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#edef-LABEL
Note that the term is "may be," not "must be." However, it is always a good idea to use a label because this turns out to be handy for accessibility reasons and for browsers running on touchscreen devices.

I need to remove this span tag its come automatically when i click on radio button
I think you used class="with-gap" in <input> like this :
<input class="with-gap" name="group3" type="radio" checked />
Remove it like this :
<input name="group3" type="radio" checked />
And your problem will be solve. Read here for more info.
I'm having some problems with the bootstrap forms. For some reason they all get messed up.
This is what it should look like:
http://i.imgur.com/vjCZvwc.png
This is how it shows up on my page:
http://i.imgur.com/48qtLc7.png
As you can see, it makes the input box smaller and it places 'br' code behind every line. It also puts a random 'p' in it without any closing tag. (nowhere to be found on the page)
My input code:
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Legend</legend>
<label>Label name</label>
<input type="text" placeholder="Type something…">
<span class="help-block">Example block-level help text here.</span>
<label class="checkbox">
<input type="checkbox"> Check me out
</label>
<button type="submit" class="btn">Submit</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
The output code in the browser:
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Legend</legend>
<p>
<label>Label name</label><br />
<input type="text" placeholder="Type something…"><br />
<span class="help-block">Example block-level help text here.</span><br />
<label class="checkbox"><br />
<input type="checkbox"> Check me out<br />
</label><br />
<button type="submit" class="btn">Submit</button><br />
</fieldset>
</form>
So my question is; What could possibly be causing this and how do I fix it?
I'm using Bootstrap v2.3.2 as a theme on wordpress and followed this tutorial, so most of my code looks like it.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. :)
This is not a problem with Bootstrap, but with your WordPress editor (or how you're using it).
You'll need to use a plain text editor or reconfigure what your editor does to HTML on save.
I have a form with some text fields,and I want to place the cursor (auto focus) on first text field of form when page gets loaded.
I want to do it without using javascript.
Ya its possible to do without support of javascript..
We can use html5 auto focus attribute
For Example:
<input type="text" name="name" autofocus="autofocus" id="xax" />
If use it (autofocus="autofocus") in text field means that text field get focused when page gets loaded..
For more details:
http://www.hscripts.com/tutorials/html5/autofocus-attribute.html
Just add autofocus in first input or textarea.
<input type="text" name="name" id="xax" autofocus="autofocus" />
This will work:
OnLoad="document.myform.mytextfield.focus();"
<body onLoad="self.focus();document.formname.name.focus()" >
formname is <form action="xxx.php" method="POST" name="formname" >
and name is <input type="text" tabindex="1" name="name" />
it works for me, checked using IE and mozilla.
autofocus, somehow didn't work for me.
An expansion for those who did a bit of fiddling around like I did.
The following work (from W3):
<input type="text" autofocus />
<input type="text" autofocus="" />
<input type="text" autofocus="autofocus" />
<input type="text" autofocus="AuToFoCuS" />
It is important to note that this does not work in CSS though. I.e. you can't use:
.first-input {
autofocus:"autofocus"
}
At least it didn't work for me...
very easy you can just set the attribute autofocus to on in the wanted input
<form action="exemple.php" method="post">
<input name="wantedInput" autofocus="on">
<input type="submit" value="go" >
</form>
Sometimes all you have to do to make sure the cursor is inside the text box is:
click on the text box and when a menu is displayed, click on "Format text box"
then click on the "text box" tab and finally modify all four margins (left, right, upper and bottom) by arrowing down until "0" appear on each margin.
I am trying to implement a toggle switch-toggle between textarea and ckeditor in my web form.
As of now I am able to toggle between the 2 editors.But I am not able to have the same contents in both the editors. Its treating it like 2 separate textarea, I want them to have the same contents when I toggle from textarea to ckeditor.Can anybody help me and lemme know what I am missing?
Thanks in advance
Code:
Updated code
<textarea id="editor1" name="editor1" class="ckeditor" rows="20" cols="75"></textarea>
<input type="button" value="CKEditor" onclick="CKEDITOR.replace('editor1');" />
<input type="button" value="Text editor" onclick="CKEDITOR.instances.editor1.destroy('editor1');" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
Use CKEDITOR.instances.editor1.destroy() to restore it to a textarea and call CKEDITOR.replace('editor1') again when you want a CKEditor.
Remove the whole <div id="textarea"> because otherwise you will get unexpected results, you're using two textareas with the same id and name.
i want to output some text in an label
<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20" name="pizza1" value="Margherita">
is there a parameter that the text (value=Margherita) can't be changed, so the text is just displayed.
is input type= "text" the best way to output text? (later on the text is dynamic created)
thanks
what i understood from you is that you need a tag that shows only text
if I was not wrong in understanding you
the answer is in your title
use label tag
<label id="pizza1">Margherita<label>
or you can just disable the textbox
<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20" name="pizza1" value="Margherita" disabled="disabled">
I hope this what you want
