Since when did labels cause harm?
The main pain point of that is that you can't see what field means what once you've got content in it.
Oh and its dreadful if you disable Javascript.
- sant0sk1 17y agoThe web pretty much runs on JavaScript these days, so anybody disabling it should be used to dreadful looking sites. I don't think GoogleBot minds too much either.
- dcneiner 17y agoLabels don't cause harm, but if you are trying to put together a tiny login box on a page, or a condensed form, etc. If it’s a longer in page form, you shouldn't use this plugin. As far as Javascript is concerned, I am going to add that into the plugin. Basically, add a class that moves the label over the field when the script is run. Good point though.
- yannis 17y agoThis type of plugin would be useful where space is a premium. A good example is the Site's contact form. You are correct to say that when 'javascript' is off the label should be outside the field. With javascript on it is simple to adjust the css to move the label over the field. I voted the effort and the plugin.
