[ASP.NET] checkboxes and line breaks


Question

Ok is there a way css-wise or other to remove the line break that occurs between the checkbox and the text when you use an asp.net checkbox?

When I add a CheckBox object to my page, it is rendered like this..

<span title="some text">
<input id="someID" type="checkbox"  name="someName" />
<label for="someID">title text</label>
</span>

I don't want the input and label to appear on different lines...is there css to prevent this?

The presence of a linebreak in the source shouldn't* make any difference to the rendered output as there isn't a specific break. As it is ASP.NET putting this HTML into the source, CSS doesn't apply as it isn't rendering anything yet. The only way to make the control not put a linebreak into the source is to override it with your own variety.

* Except we all know how crap IE is about rendering linebreaks when it shouldn't :huh:

what css do you have?

They are both inline elements, so should appear side by side.

Let me look at the html again to verify that there isn't any css interfering...because from what you are saying, it seems like there is..

    • Google Chrome 137.0.7151.120 (offline installer) by Razvan Serea The web browser is arguably the most important piece of software on your computer. You spend much of your time online inside a browser: when you search, chat, email, shop, bank, read the news, and watch videos online, you often do all this using a browser. Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier. Use one box for everything--type in the address bar and get suggestions for both search and Web pages. Thumbnails of your top sites let you access your favorite pages instantly with lightning speed from any new tab. Desktop shortcuts allow you to launch your favorite Web apps straight from your desktop. Chrome has many useful features built in, including automatic full-page translation and access to thousands of apps, extensions, and themes from the Chrome Web Store. Google Chrome is one of the best solutions for Internet browsing giving you high level of security, speed and great features. Important to know! The offline installer links do not include the automatic update feature. Google Chrome 137.0.7151.120 changelog: [$7000][420697404] High CVE-2025-6191: Integer overflow in V8.

    • -Drop the art style, it's cool but doesn't fit the franchise at all. -Make it a gritty single player game, like Halo -Include deathmatch and all that stuff, extraction can be a separate mode If they don't do that, it's dead on arrival IMO.
    • It's a shame because it's one of the best immersive sims ever made, even though it could have used a bit more monster variety IMO.
