输入后的断行没有html标记

Question

I am trying to display a number of inputs and their corresponding labels. They are both inline elements, and I have a working solution with adding a br tag at the end like so

<label for="hello"></label>
<input id="hello" type="text" />
<br>
<label for="stackoverflow"></label>
<input id="stackoverflow" />

Id like to solve this without extraneous HTML markup, ie with CSS. What is the easiest way to do this?

I have viewed other questions similar to this, but aligning by row instead of by column.

Answer 1

You can wrap the labels around your inputs and display them as blocks:

<style>
  label { display: block; }
</style>

<label>
  Hello: <input name="hello">
</label>
<label>
  StackOverflow: <input name="stackoverflow">
</label>

Note that when you do this you don't need to use the for="name" attribute.

The other way (if you don't want the labels wrapped around your inputs) is to float the labels to the left:

<style>
  label { float: left; clear: left; }
</style>

However, I generally prefer a little more markup, something that connects the label and the input into one logical element, called a field :

<div class="field">
  <label for="hello">Hello</label>
  <input name="hello">
</div>
<div class="field">
  <label for="stackoverflow">Stackoverflow</label>
  <input name="stackoverflow">
</div>

Because each field is a div , it will display as a block automatically, but you can control it for individual fields as well.

Try to set display:inline-block for your input and label elements. So you can add all block element specific css like witdh or margin-bottom .

You can also set your input and label to display:block and add margin-bottom only to the the input. Or you can reverse it and add a margin-top to your labels ;)

If you want to remove the margin on the last element you can use input:last-child {margin-bottom:0;}

input, label {display:block;}
input {margin-bottom:18px;}
input:last-child {margin-bottom:0;}

/* Or to be specific you can use the attribut-selector
   which only works on inputs with type="text"
*/
input[type="text"]:last-child {margin-bottom:0;}
