It seems that in a .xul file: <html:label><html:input type="checkbox" name="check1" checked="checked"/>checkbox 1</html:label> works, but <html:label><checkbox/>Dual state</html:label> doesn't. Is this a deliberate decision? The advantage of the first syntax was that clicking on the label selcted the checkbox.

i'll take a look. not sure what could be different. marking assigned.

labels only know about things inside them that are nsIFormControlFrames. the xul checkbox is currently not one of these. Not sure how to get around this since I don't want to make it an nsIFormControlFrame.

ccing hyatt, as promised. the more we talk about this, the uglier it gets.

all platforms.

this should go away when we merge with the html checkbox

7546 is targeted for m8, so targeting this for m9.

moving to M10 because i have no idea when the dependant bug will get fixed.

<checkbox> no longer exists. use <html:input> for tri-state checkboxes, where it works inside of a label.

code level fix, marking verified. reopen if i'm wrong here...
