G'day Pete

I think your wrapping of the labels is appropriate, but I'd probably 
include a fieldset to surround the lot - indicating their relationship 
to each other clearly



  Add a thumbnail image?

  

Add thumbnail image:
  
  
path to image:

  



Or something like that...

Cheers

[WSG] label tag wrapping around checkbox

[Peter Ottery]

sports fans,

if you had part of a form that had a checkbox that when checked
enabled a file upload input, how would you mark that up?

the result should look something like this:
http://skunkworks.farcrycms.com/wsg/label/label.gif

but i wasnt sure what the label tag/s would/should wrap around...

i'm thinking something like...



Add thumbnail image:


path to image:



...and then hide the "path to image" text in the css so its audible to
a screenreader - but maybe not needed otherwise.

thoughts welcome,
pete ottery
