I tend to hate checkboxes without any <label>
. Because basically that means that you have to click a 20×20 px² area to hit the checkbox. Making the texts "Notify" and "daily of any new answers" a <label>
for the checkbox would allow you to click the text as well and not only on the tiny checkbox.

1Good call, from a usability point of view...– Rowland ShawCommented Jul 16, 2009 at 16:26

This should be default behavior for every website. Just as long as the label isn't abnormally large with no indication of click area. Should be tight around the text.– user159834Commented Apr 23, 2011 at 22:09

2Just for the record, Joey, I'd say @Cawas' edit was just fine and actually helpful. What made you write that revision comment?– ArjanCommented Apr 24, 2011 at 10:15

Arjas: I value proper spelling. Hence my edit to their edit.– JoeyCommented Apr 24, 2011 at 10:25

Joey what @Arjan meant was how you implied my edit was not useful on your comment. I'm fine with your edit as well. It improved over mine. And sorry for the bad spelling. I have a thing against uppercasing and sometimes I forget to proper do it in places where it's required. ;)– cregoxCommented Apr 25, 2011 at 17:50

Indeed, somehow I erroneously interpreted that edit comment as implying that @Cawas' edit was no good at all. But that's not what you wrote, my bad. (Will be cleaning up these comments, some day.)– ArjanCommented Apr 25, 2011 at 17:53

Definitely a good idea; both for accessibility and the increasing number of touch-devices.– Phil LelloCommented May 7, 2011 at 17:39
