I think this is wrong as Opera and IE do what I expect (although I did read a bit in the HTML 4 spec which made me think I was wrong, but I think it was regarding tables). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load the testcase (will attach next post) 2. Click the first label Actual Results: The checkbox wouldn't check Expected Results: Checkbox should have checked

I've tested with textboxes, radios and selects too but they all seem to work fine. I'm assuming it's because checkboxes are toggled on and off, and the first label changes the checkbox state, then triggers the second label which changes the state back to the original? Just a guess though, I'm probably wrong!

So... the HTML spec is a little funky here. Focusing a label should focus and trigger its control. OK. When the control is focused, the focus event propagates up to the containing label, triggering it. Oops. Perhaps we should bail out if the event target is in fact our target control? Aaronl?

Boris, so is it checking and then unchecking it so fast that it looks like nothing happened? I don't think focusing a label should trigger its control at all - I though it was the click event that triggers it. Or?

Aaron, as far as I can tell, that's what's happening (checking and unchecking). If it's not supposed to trigger the control, then we have a problem - it does.

(In reply to comment #5) > Created an attachment (id=141172) [edit] Hmm, when I click on label1 or label2 or the checkbox itself, the alert box pops up and the Checkbox is triggered. I think that's what it is expected to do? Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060531 Minefield/3.0a1

The patch for bug 146066 fixed this.
