What are you trying to accomplish?
This PR fixes the association between
<label>
s and their form inputs when a custom ID is provided. Normally, Rails will generate an ID for a given input, and use the same ID for the label. However, creating the input with a custom ID that is not also passed to the label results in the label'sfor
attribute pointing to a non-existent element. For example,results in the following HTML:
The forms framework (via Rails) appears to link the label to the input's name instead of its ID, which is incorrect.
This PR ensures the two elements are always properly associated.
Integration
No changes necessary in production.
Risk Assessment
