thats my code
<form class="contactForm">
<label> Your name
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</label>
</form>
I want my input element to be shown beneath my label element. Thought its a problem of block element but when i style in css input or label to be shown as a block nothing happens. Thanks for help
While the label can be setup that way, try making it the input's sibling instead of parent. Also, give it the for attribute to match an input's name attribute.
<form class="contactForm">
<label for="name">Your name</label>
<input type="text" style="display:block" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</form>
Once the label is being used like this, you can see display:block works as intended. Just want to add: in a final solution it's poor practice to use style tags directly, and I recommend creating easy to understand CSS classes.
Hope that helps.
A <span> with display: block set on it should do the trick - and, unlike using a <div>, it's valid HTML. Just make sure the parent label isn't still set to display: inline - which is default.
Example:
label,
label > span {
display: block;
}
<form>
<label>
<span>Your name</span>
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</label>
</form>
Would a <br /> work?
<form class="contactForm">
<label> Your name
<br />
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</label>
</form>
<form class="contactForm">
<label> Your name
<input style="display:block;" type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</label>
</form>
The text in the label doesn´t have a tag. If you add a <span>, you can add some style to that.
label span{
display: block;
}
<form class="contactForm">
<label>
<span>Your name</span>
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</label>
</form>
You just have to use the input fields within div
<form class="contactForm">
<label> Your name </label>
<div>
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name">
</div>
</form>

I want to know if this code is correct or not. Because a label tag in HTML should have an input tag as well. But the first line of code doesn't have any input with it.
For example:
I want to make this part of the form.
This is my code:
<label>Name:</label>
<br>
<div>
<label for="fname"></label>
<input type="text" id="fname" name="name" placeholder="First">
<label for="lname"></label>
<input type="text" id="lname" name="name" placeholder="Last">
</div>
I tried this in my code but the required function doesn't seem to work in my web page :
<div>
<label for="Username">Username: </label>
<input type="text" name="username" required>
</div>
For the "required" attribute to work, the <input> must be be wrapped in <form> ... </form> tags.
If the input box is located within a <form> tag as intended, then required will work correctly in all modern browsers. Demo:
<form>
<div>
<label for="Username">Username: </label>
<input type="text" name="username" id="Username" required>
</div>
<input type="submit" value="click to test"/>
</form>
Also for= on a label requires the target element to have an id with matching text before it's effective. It doesn't interact with the name attribute. I've added an id in the demo.
i need a twitter bootstrap form with input text boxes on the same line, but its labels must be on the top of input boxes.
So far i have:
<form action="#">
<label for="city">City</label>
<input type="text" id="city"/>
<label for="street">Street</label>
<input type="text" id="street"/>
</form>
http://jsfiddle.net/A8RaG/
So i need inputs on the same line and labels must be on the top of each input.
How do i do that?
Another solution is putting a div around each label/input combination and setting the css to float left
HTML
<form action="#">
<div>
<label for="city">City</label>
<input type="text" id="city"/>
</div>
<div>
<label for="street">Street</label>
<input type="text" id="street"/>
</div>
</form>
CSS
form div{
float: left
}
jsFiddle
you can put a div around each label and block, and in the css put this div in inline-bloc
like :
<form action="#">
<div class = "css">
<label for="city">City</label>
<input type="text" id="city"/>
</div><div class="css">
<label for="street">Street</label>
<input type="text" id="street"/>
</div>
</form>
and in the CSS:
.css{
display : inline-block;
}
You could also just use <br />. It will work for a form as well.
If you use Bootstrap you need to use the css of bootstrap !
Use class="form-horizontal" or class="form-inline"
You can try this with no css added :
<form action="#" class="form-horizontal">
<label for="city">City</label>
<input type="text" id="city"/>
<label for="street">Street</label>
<input type="text" id="street"/>
</form>
Simple no ?
Is it possible by default make all the fileds in a div class as required fileds. I have a form and inside the form i have a div class.. why i am using the div class is by defalut the div class is hidden and when i clicked on some check box it will be visible. SO i need all the elements in the div class should be required filed. I was trying required="required" on all the elements but it is not working. Any one has idea?
Here is my html
<div class="downtime" id="downtime" style="display: none" >
<label> name </label>
<input required="required" type="text" name="name><br>
<label> age </label>
<input required="required type="text" name="age><br>
</div>
</form>
Any help will be appreciated
Syntax highlighting - probably the greatest tool at any coder's disposal. (It's even on Stack Overflow!)
<div class="downtime" id="downtime" style="display: none" >
<label> name </label>
<input required="required" type="text" name="name><br>
<label> age </label>
<input required="required type="text" name="age><br>
</div>
</form>
Attributes are red and their values are blue. So it should look more like this:
<div class="downtime" id="downtime" style="display: none" >
<label> name </label>
<input required="required" type="text" name="name" /><br>
<label> age </label>
<input required="required" type="text" name="age" /><br>
</div>
</form>
and FYI the required attribute doesn't need a value:
<input type="text" name="age" required />
Change your code as follow:
<input type="text" name="name" required>
and
<input name="age" required>
Just writing "required" make your fields as required. It works only in HTML5. So put it before html tag starts.
if you want to use html5 you can do it with required(this only works on browsers that support html5), if not use a jquery plugin for validation like this:

can anyone help me?

</p>
<div id="signupbutton" onclick="document.forms.signupform.submit()"></div>
</form>
Thank you
You can style the div as inline, but you should rather use a span.
<label id="fnamelabel" for="fnam" style = "display:inline">First Name :</label>
<input type="text" name="fnam" id="fnam" tabindex="1" style = "display:inline" />
<div id="newDiv" style = "display:inline"></div>
normally I wouldn't use in-line CSS like that, but as you didn't post the css i felt it'd be necessary.
First of all, let's work on that markup!
<form action="operates/signup.php" method="post" name="signup_form">
<label>First Name:
<input name="first_name"></label>
<label>Last Name:
<input name="last_name"></label>
<label>Your Email:
<input type="email" name="email"></label>
<label>Please Reenter Your Email:
<input type="email" name="validate_email"></label>
<label>New Password:
<input type="password" name="password"></label>
<label>Main Skill:
<input name="main_skill"></label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="terms_and_conditions">I agreed the Terms and Conditions</label>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
<style type="text/css">
form {
display: block;
width: 400px;
}
label {
display: block;
padding: 5px;
margin: 5px;
}
form label input {
float: right;
}
input[type=checkbox] {
float: none;
}
</style>
There, now doesn't that look much better?
As for the original question, don't use a div, div is a completely-unsemantic block-level element. If you want an inline element (i.e. to show on the same line), use a span, which is a completely-unsemantic inline-level element.
