Label Placement in Forms

Matteo Penzo has a good article on Label Placement in Forms and the conclusions are...

* Label positionPlacing a label above an input field works better in most cases, because users arent forced to look separately at the label and the input field. Be careful to visually separate the label for the next input field from the previous input field.

* Alignment of labelsIn most cases, when placing labels to the left of input fields, using left-aligned labels imposes a heavy cognitive workload on users. Placing labels above input fields is preferable, but if you choose to place them to the left of input fields, at least make them right aligned.

* Bold labelsReading bold labels is a little bit more difficult for users, so its preferable to use plain text labels. However, when using bold labels, you might want to style the input fields not to have heavy borders.

* Drop-down list boxesUse them with care, because theyre so eye-catching. Either use them for important data or, when using them for less important data, place them well below more important input fields.

* Label placement for drop-down list boxesTo ensure users are immediately aware of what youre asking for, instead of using a separate label, make the default value for a drop-down list box the label. This will work for very long lists of items, because a user already has the purpose of the input field in mind before the default value disappears.
