Hi,
The "for" attribute should NOT be used when the label tag encloses the
label text.
What are the dangers?

Hello,
Its probably not a danger per se for most people but if you ever use a
cms that writes out form fields sometimes they write out hidden fields
along with them, if these are wrapped in a label along with the intended
input/select/whatever then firefox chokes, I can't remember now whether
it was only when the visible input wrapped in the label had no id
matching the for attribute. If the label wraps a select and there are
hidden inputs inside that label then the select does not stay open
unless you click and drag the mouse to the desired option.
Basically either way is fine, so long as it's one input per label.
