<label for="name">Name:</label>
<input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
<label for="comment">Comment:</label>
<textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>

5,791 PointsFor me to remember this is by using this mnemonic ** I want to label for id ** means just write
<label for="comment">comment:</label>
before the element we want to label which in this case is textarea .for attribute take the value of the id of the element we want to label. Correct me if I am wrong.
