Version: unspecified → 3.6.1
To fix this, either <label>'s should be removed if you cannot edit the corresponding fields, or the fields should be hidden using <input type="hidden">. What's annoying with hidden fields is that process_bug.cgi would get them, and would need to validate them.

Summary: show_bug.cgi page contains a ton of <label > elements pointing to non-existent IDs → show_bug.cgi contains several <label> elements pointing to non-existent IDs if the user cannot edit some fields
I'm actually tending toward just saying that this is WONTFIX, even though it is a valid bug. If you view the form in an editable mode, nearly all the labels become valid, and if you're viewing it in an uneditable mode, the lack of labels doesn't cause any regression for the end user.
I mean, the lack of valid label targets.
This should be fixed by bug 575211, assuming editable => 1/0 is set correctly.
Depends on: 575211

AFAIK, this has been fixed when we moved to HTML5.
