This could also be a bug with the form.
It seems that when you position a label it disappears. Duplicating the code with
a span instead of a label yields the expected result, implying that this is a
problem with the way labels are handled. I also checked to make sure the html
spec for label says nothing about positioning.
As my supervisor just pointed out, this is a major bug since I use this sort of
constructs for a product that will be used by 2 million+ Canadians. I'd hate to
have to take Moz out of my list of supported browser, since I'd prefer it if
everyone used it.
One could use a span (as the example shows) but it lacks the semantic meaning
and functionality (transfer of focus).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Simply load the HTML below.
2. note the missing label in the first instance but not the second (which is a span)
Use this HTML to view the problem.
