Associating a text label with a form element

You can associate the text block with a form object, such as a drop-down list or an entry field. This is useful when creating titles that comply with the standards set in Section 508 - 1194.22 of the Rehabilitation Act and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. After you have added the form object and text block to the page, you can associate the two to use the text block as a label for the form object.

For information about creating titles that comply with the standards set in Section 508 - 1194.22 of the Rehabilitation Act and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, see Creating Web-based, accessible content (Section 508/WCAG).

To associate a text block with a form object:

Add the text block. For details, see Adding text to your title.
Double-click the text block graphic of the text block in the Title Explorer. Alternatively, you can right-click the graphic and select Properties or right-click on the text block in the work-area and select Properties. The Properties ribbon is displayed.
Use the Label for drop-down list to select the appropriate form object.
