| Title | Checkbox with failed explicit association between input and label |
|---|---|
| Description | A document with a simple form that contains only a checkbox. Next to the input element (type="checkbox") is the label element for the field; input and label are not explicitly associated with each other by means of for and id attributes because the values of the attributes do not match each other. |

Technologies are markup languages or data formats. If the technology is a markup language, “features” refers to elements and attributes.

Feature: input
(namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml)
.
Technical specification: The INPUT element .
Feature: label
(namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml)
.
Technical specification: The LABEL element .
The test case is intended to fail because the for attribute of the label and the id attribute of the input do not match, so there is not explicit association between label and field.
Automatic evaluation.
“Rules” refer to success criteria in WCAG 2.0, checkpoints in WCAG 1.0 and similar requirements.
The test case fails the following success criterion at line 11, column 29: http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-WCAG20-20070517/Overview.html#content-structure-separation-programmatic.
Assistive technology can find no explicit association between input and label.
The id attribute on the input element says "cats" but the for attribute on the label element is empty.
The test case maps to failure F68: Failure of SC 1.3.1 and 4.1.2 due to the association of label and user interface controls not being programmatically determinable.
The test case fails the following success criterion at line 11, column 50: http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-WCAG20-20060427/guidelines.html#content-structure-separation-programmatic.
Assistive technology can find no explicit association between input and label.
