# --description--
|
|
|
|
Forms commonly use <dfn>checkboxes</dfn> for questions that may have more than one answer.
|
|
|
|
Checkboxes are a type of `input`.
|
|
|
|
Each of your checkboxes can be nested within its own `label` element. By wrapping an `input` element inside of a `label` element it will automatically associate the checkbox input with the label element surrounding it.
|
|
|
|
All related checkbox inputs should have the same `name` attribute.
|
|
|
|
It is considered best practice to explicitly define the relationship between a checkbox `input` and its corresponding `label` by setting the `for` attribute on the `label` element to match the `id` attribute of the associated `input` element.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of a checkbox:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<label for="loving"><input id="loving" type="checkbox" name="personality"> Loving</label>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# --instructions--
|
|
|
|
Add to your form a set of three checkboxes. Each checkbox should be nested within its own `label` element. All three should share the `name` attribute of `personality`.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
Your page should have three checkbox elements.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert($('input[type="checkbox"]').length > 2);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each of your three checkbox elements should be nested in its own `label` element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert($('label > input[type="checkbox"]:only-child').length > 2);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Make sure each of your `label` elements has a closing tag.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(
|
|
code.match(/<\/label>/g) &&
|
|
code.match(/<label/g) &&
|
|
code.match(/<\/label>/g).length === code.match(/<label/g).length
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your checkboxes should be given the `name` attribute of `personality`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(
|
|
$('label > input[type="checkbox"]').filter('[name="personality"]').length > 2
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each of your checkboxes should be added within the `form` tag.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert($('label').parent().get(0).tagName.match('FORM'));
|
|
```
