Learn HTML by Building a Cat Photo App - Step 56

What does it mean ??
There’s another way to associate an input element’s text with the element itself. You can nest the text within a label element and add a for attribute with the same value as the input element’s id attribute.

Associate the text Loving with the checkbox by nesting only the text Loving in a label element and giving it an appropriate for attribute.

Hello! @anandabch147

The same step has been answered here.

Happy Coding! :grinning:

The question is answered on link given by @ jyothsnal6333
If you need detailed explanation for your question" what does it mean?". Here is my view, I hope it helps you
In HTML, the label element is used to associate text with form elements like input, select, textarea, etc. when you nest element’s text with label element the for attribute in the label matches with the id attribute of the provided form element. This association tells the browser that the text enclosed by the label element is a label for the provided form element. for example

<label for="email">Email</label>
                      <input type="email" id="email">

In this case the text is Email and the form element is input, since the id and for attribute values are same, they are associated. To prove the associativity click on the associated label text and it will interact with the input element. It means if you have checkbox you can select just by clicking the label text. This improves the accessibility.
