Re: [EP-tech] Issue with searchfield labels and checkbox ids


Hi Cristian,
Thanks for taking a look at these.

I've been doing some accessibility checking (using http://wave.webaim.org/) which highlighted the missing labels as issues.
In trying to fix the main missing labels, I discovered the repeated ids - which will take a bit more fixing.

I'll submit a patch when I've got something sensible - the guide here: http://webaim.org/techniques/forms/controls#checkbox suggests wrapping the multi-checkbox in a fieldset - which will require some additional styling.

Cheers,
John

Hi John,

No, only checkboxes have a <label> element.
