Bug: form controls labels don't always 'connect' to control
Reported by dleffler | April 2nd, 2015 @ 05:14 PM | in 2.3.4 (closed)
This primarily applies to checkboxes and radio controls...when we instantiate a form control via method or smarty function when the control name is an array (esp and empty array such as name=option[extended][]), our label 'for' attribute' will not match the control 'id' attribute.
Currently this only seems to occur in some of the ecommerce views such as options which use nested arrays and not normal controls nor the sc 'array' we use on the site configuration view.
Notes:
- the 'name' is what the form passes back in $_POST ($_GET not used in Exponent) and the 'id' is what the label, some css, and most javascript refers to.
- 'id' is an optional parameter on instantiation, but will be auto-created by any number of means (e.g., YUI tends to add ID's to most everything)
- prior to HTML5, there were more restrictions on the 'id' attribute legal characters

- State changed from “new” to “resolved”
Should be fixed with recent push...though we still provide HTML 4.01 compliant id's
