<html> <input type="text" label="name"> [message #1855711]

Hello there,

I am quite new to the HTML and PHP scene. Basically, I am trying to include a box, which allows the user to input text. This will eventually be stored in a string. Yet, when I include:
<html>
<input type="text" label = "name">
</html>
<?php
$name;
?>

the compiler claims label is not a valid attribute. Unfortunately, when I press <f2> to find out what fields are acceptable in this tag, nothing happens. What is wrong with the label attribute?

Kevin, the Moderators aren't necessarily the ones to answer forum questions. Please don't report a post to "bump" it in that manner.

If you check the HTML5 documentation, the input element does not have a label attribute (https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#the-input-element) . Why
would you expect F2 to show you the valid attributes? What functionality or command is it tied to? Typically you'd do that with Content Assist or the Properties view.
