HTML <label> Tag

The HTML <label> tag is used to define a label for an <input> element. The label provides a user-friendly name for the input field and helps improve accessibility for users using screen readers or other assistive technologies.

Example:

<label for="username">Username:</label>
<input type="text" id="username">

In the example above, the <label> tag is used to create a label for the input field with the id "username". When the user clicks on the label, the input field is focused.

Attributes of the <label> tag:

Attribute Description
for Specifies which input element the label is associated with. The value of this attribute should be the id of the input element.
form Specifies one or more forms the label belongs to. This can be used if the label is not a descendant of the input element.
accesskey Specifies a keyboard shortcut to activate or add focus to the element.
onfocus Specifies a script to run when the element receives focus.
style Specifies CSS styles for the label.

It is important to note that the <label> tag should always have a "for" attribute that matches the id of the input field it is associating with, in order for it to work correctly.
