> Now hosted on [CDNJS](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/float-label-css)! • And shipped with [Bootstrap Kit](https://bootstrap-kit.com/)!

Bulletproof CSS-only implementation of Float Label pattern with automatic fallback for ANY non-supporting browser.

* No JS! Pure CSS!

* No hacks with `required` and `:valid`!

* ↳ HTML5 validation support!

* Compatible with `` and `` fields!

* No need to define `for="..."` attribute on ``! **v1.0.1+**



## Demo

* [No-dependencies demo](https://codepen.io/tonystar/pen/JRLaKw)

* [Bootstrap 3 demo](https://codepen.io/tonystar/pen/ALaZrV)

* [Bootstrap 4 demo](https://codepen.io/tonystar/pen/LRdpYZ)

## Usage

Include `float-label.min.css`:

```html

```

Use `` with `.has-float-label` class as a wrapper for `` **v1.0.1+**:

```html

  

  Email

```

**NOTE**:

1. W3C [allows this](http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#edef-LABEL).

2. `` should go after ``.

***

Alternatively wrap `` and `` by `.has-float-label`:

```html



  

  Email



```

**NOTE**:


1. W3C [allows this](http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#edef-LABEL) as well.

2. `` should go after ``.

3. `for="..."` attribute is required on ``.

### Quick use: Bootstrap

Instead of `float-label.min.css` just include pre-built `bootstrap-float-label.min.css`:

```html

```

Markup is the same. For more details see: https://github.com/tonystar/bootstrap-float-label.

* [@chriscoyier](https://twitter.com/chriscoyier) for the [`input:focus + label`](https://css-tricks.com/float-labels-css/)

* [@thatemil](https://twitter.com/thatemil) for the [`:placeholder-shown`](https://thatemil.com/blog/2016/01/23/floating-label-no-js-pure-css/)

## Browser support

Any browser with `:placeholder-shown` CSS pseudo-class: http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-placeholder-shown.

All non-supporting browsers will fall back to the static layout (w/o animation).

=> Can be used in ANY browser *as is*!
