xforms:input 508 compliance

> <xforms:input ref="Transactions/FederalCash/CashReceipts">
>           <xforms:label>Cash Receipts</xforms:label>
>           <xforms:alert>Please enter a valid amount</xforms:alert>
>       </xforms:input>

> Would generate an HTMl which isn't 508 complaint:
>
> <label class="xforms-label" id="xf-78-label" for="xf-78">Cash
> Receipts</label>
> <span id="xf-78" class="xforms-control xforms-input xforms-type-decimal">
> <input id="xf-78$xforms-input-1" type="text" name="xf-78$xforms-input-1"
> value="0" class="xforms-input-input xforms-type-decimal">
> </span>
>
> the <label> tag's 'for' attribute points to the <span> tag (xf-78). To
> comply to 508 standards, shouldn't it point to the <input> tag?
>
> Shouldn't the 'for' attribute be for="xf-78$xforms-input-1"?

> a comment - 19/Mar/10 04:29 PM ok. i can hide the label using CSS.. but im
> not sure if reader would read it if it has a "display:none". Another issue,
> we have is the label isn't associated with the input field. here the output
> HTML: <label class="hidden-508 xforms-label" id="xf-78-label"
> for="xf-78">Cash Receipts</label> <span id="xf-78" class="xforms-control
> xforms-input xforms-type-decimal"> <input id="xf-78$xforms-input-1"
> type="text" name="xf-78$xforms-input-1" value="0" class="xforms-input-input
> xforms-type-decimal"> </span> The label is associated to the span and not to
> the input tag. This the xforms code to generate the HTML above:
> <xforms:input ref="Transactions/FederalCash/CashReceipts">
> <xforms:label class="hidden-508">Cash Receipts</xforms:label>
>  <xforms:alert>Please enter a valid amount</xforms:alert>
>  </xforms:input>
