Considerations for developers

• Use labels for every input and make the for="" and id="" values match. IDs must be unique on each page, only one label can be associated to each unique form element. Keep it simple: not all browsers correctly expose multiple labels that are linked to the same form element. Refer to our examples.
• Fields with error validation should have aria-describedby to insure that the associated field level error message is read by assistive technology. If the error message has an id="my-error-message", then the input should have aria-describedby="my-error-message".

Considerations for designers

Avoid hiding the input label on focus.
