html - Hogyan csinálhatom a jelölőnégyzetet a szövegcímkére való kattintáshoz is?

Set the CSS display property for the label to be a block element and use that instead of your div - it keeps the semantic meaning of a label while allowing whatever styling you like.

For example:

label {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  display: block;
  background-color: #e0e0ff;
}

<label for="test">
  A ticky box! <input type="checkbox" id="test" />
</label>

If you correctly markup your HTML code, there is no need for javascript. The following code will allow the user to click on the label text to tick the checkbox.

<label for="surname">Surname</label>
<input type="checkbox" name="surname" id="surname" />

The for attribute on the label element links to the id attribute on the input element and the browser does the rest.

This has been testing to work in:

• IE6
• IE7
• Firefox

As indicated by @Gatekiller and others, the correct solution is the <label> tag.

Click-in-the-text is nice, but there is another reason to use the <label> tag: accessibility. The tools that visually-impaired people use to access the web need the <label>s to read-out the meaning of checkboxes and radio buttons. Without <label>s, they have to guess based on surrounding text, and they often get it wrong or have to give up.

It is very frustrating to be faced with a form that reads "Please select your shipping method, radio-button1, radio-button2, radio-button3".

Note that web accessibility is a complex topic; <label>s are a necessary step but they are not enough to guarantee accessibility or compliance with government regulations where it applies.

Ronnie,

If you wanted to enclose the label text and checkbox inside a wrapper element, you could do the following:

<label for="surname">
    Surname
    <input type="checkbox" name="surname" id="surname" />
</label>

You can wrap your checkbox in the label:

<label style="display: block; padding: 50px 0 0 50px; background-color: pink; width: 80px; height: 80px">
  <input type="checkbox" name="surname">
</label>

You need to just wrap the checkbox in label tag just like this

 <label style="height: 10px; width: 150px; display: block; ">
  [Checkbox Label Here] <input type="checkbox"/>
 </label>

FIDDLE

or you can also use the for attribute of label and id of your checkbox like below

<label for="other">Other Details</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="other" />

FIDDLE

this should work:

<script>
function checkbox () {
    var check = document.getElementById("myCheck").checked;
    var box = document.getElementById("myCheck")

    if (check == true) {
        box.checked = false;
    }
    else if (check == false) {
        box.checked = true;
    }
}
</script>
<input type="checkbox"><p id="myCheck" onClick="checkbox();">checkbox</p>

if it doesnt, pleae corect me!

Wrapping with the label still doesn't allow clicking 'anywhere in the box' - still just on the text! This does the job for me:

<div onclick="dob.checked=!dob.checked" class="checkbox"><input onclick="checked=!checked" id="dob" type="checkbox"/>Date of birth entry must be completed</div>

but unfortunately has lots of javascript that is effectively toggling twice.
