I was looking how a bootstrap form looks like, And I saw something that looks pretty much like this:
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputA">Some Input:</label>
<input type="text" name="Input" id="inputA" class="form-control">
</div>
And it's really bothers me to do the for attribute every time. so, my question is, Is it possible to do somethig like this?:
<label class="form-group">
<span>Some Input:</span>
<input type="text" name="Input" id="inputA" class="form-control">
</label>
And is there any possible issues working this way?
The for simply toggles the control for the form input. Essentially, when you click the label, the form element is focused upon, or selected, depending on what type of form element it is. You do not have to include the for on each label; however, this is just common practice. I would not swap the label for a span though, I would simply do this...
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-sm-2 control-label">Your Label</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="foo">
</div>
</div>

I have a WordPress website with a bar at the top that I can add custom code to.
I'm trying to add an Infusionsoft email signup form to this bar and I want everything to be on the same line. Currently it's showing the field label on the first line, then the email field on the second line and then the submit button on the third line.
I can add whatever code I need to this form and this custom code box and I can also add custom CSS to the theme options themselves.
I've tried a bunch of things and some of them almost work but I can't figure this out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's my form code:
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" action="https://ca383.infusionsoft.com/app/form/process/647e604918a3f0a0c52cd6b907f9d7d3" class="infusion-form" id="inf_form_647e604918a3f0a0c52cd6b907f9d7d3" method="POST">
<input name="inf_form_xid" type="hidden" value="647e604918a3f0a0c52cd6b907f9d7d3">
<input name="inf_form_name" type="hidden" value="Web Form submitted">
<input name="infusionsoft_version" type="hidden" value="1.70.0.80421">
<div class="infusion-field">
<label for="inf_field_Email">Sign Up For Weekly Tips and Specials Offers!</label>
<input class="infusion-field-input" id="inf_field_Email" name="inf_field_Email" placeholder="Email *" type="text">
</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div class="infusion-submit">
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</div>
I moved the infusion submit div inside the infusion field div. I used display flex and flex-direction row to achieve them on the same row.
I know you're using word press and probably just copy and pasting code. If you plan to do web design work it would be well worth it to study up on HTML and CSS. It's actually not that complicated and you'll have so much control over how things look on your site!

How can I perfectly align and space my inline inputs forms in bootstrap
<div class="form-group col-lg-12">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<input type="text" class= "form-control" value="First Name">
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
<input type="text" class= "form-control" value="Last Name">
</div>
</div>
Use col-xs instead of col-lg
see this for a try
And keep all your input inside the
`<div class="form-group col-xs-12">`
I don't quite understand our question very well, maybe a picture to illustrate what you want to achieve would be helpful.
I have basically wrapped everything with a column-xs-12 so its perfectly aligned. Also included an example if you want to place two input forms on one line. I have made a plunk to help you out, hope it helps.
<div class="col-xs-12"> </div>

I'm trying to draw an horizontal form that should be horizontal even on mobile view.
Currently I have this simple form:
<form role="form" class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-sm-2 control-label" for="username">{{_USERNAME}}:</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="text" readonly class="form-control" id="username" value="{{username}}">
</div>
</div>
</form>
It works correctly as expected, so it is horizontal on large screens and classic on small screens.
Current:
Expected:
How can I force this form to be horizontal even on small screens? Do I have to write CSS by myself or there is some standard way using Bootstrap?
Okay I've found the solution.
Use col-xs-* instead of col-ms-*
<form role="form" class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-xs-2 control-label" for="username">{{_USERNAME}}:</label>
<div class="col-xs-10">
<input type="text" readonly class="form-control" id="username" value="{{username}}">
</div>
</div>
</form>
Since non of the above met my needs. I drawed a table and inserted the label inside a td and the input in the next td. All within the same row. Finally adjusted the margins as needed.
Note: This worked for an exclusive mobile UX.
I want to use html input elements in twitter bootstrap. I have a label on the left and an input element on the right. I pretty much used the example given in the bootstrap documentation. But my problem is that I don't have IDs for every input element and so I can't specify the "for"-value of the labels.
My solution in previous projects was wrapping the input element with a label, but this results in a wrong styling when I use bootstrap.
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label">MyTitle:
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" value="..." />
</div>
</label>
</div>
Will this work for you?
<div class="control-group">
<div class="controls">
<label class="control-label">MyTitle:
<input type="text" value="..." />
</label>
</div>
</div>
I'm doing this HTML5 form, but when I check it on the browser (running it locally) it displays the label next to the input space next to le label and so.
heres the code:
<form>
<label for="name">Nombre:</label>
<input type="text" id="name" placeholder="Ingresa tu Nombre" required />
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input type="email" id="email" placeholder="Ingresa tu e-mail " required />
<label for="message">Mensage:</label>
<textarea id="message" placeholder="Ingresa tu Mensaje" required></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Envia tu mensage" >
</form>
should I use <br />? I already checked on other web pages and they dont use it
thank you.
As Kolink pointed out, the form displays inline as all the elements inside it are inline.
You shouldn't be using <br/> or <p> as they are not intended for that purpose (You shouldn't be using a toothbrush to clean a toilet). Better use a <ul> with <li> for each field. This makes sense as the form is nothing but a list of fields.
The mark-up would be like this:
<form>
<ul>
<li>
<label for="something">some label</label>
<input id="something" />
</li>
</ul>
</form>
Alternatively, you can go ahead and use <div> as well (but not <p>).
Well, <label> is inline, <input> is inline, <textarea> is inline...
If all your elements are inline, of course your overall form will be.
Try using the <br /> tag, or maybe <p>...</p>.
Kolink is correct. Another way to address this is to add
display: block;
to all input and label elements using CSS.
