How can I create an HTML checkbox with a label that is clickable (this means that clicking on the label turns the checkbox on/off)?

You can create an HTML checkbox with a clickable label using the <label> element and associating it with the checkbox using the for attribute and the id attribute of the checkbox. This way, clicking on the label will toggle the checkbox on/off. Here's an example:

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Clickable Checkbox Label</title>
</head>
<body>

<label for="checkbox">Click me to toggle the checkbox:</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="checkbox">

</body>
</html>

In this example, the <label> element's for attribute is set to match the id attribute of the <input> element. When you click on the label, it will toggle the checkbox's checked state. Similarly, you can wrap the checkbox input inside the label element to achieve the same result:

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Clickable Checkbox Label</title>
</head>
<body>

<label>
  Click me to toggle the checkbox:
  <input type="checkbox">
</label>

</body>
</html>

Both examples achieve the same result: clicking on the label will toggle the checkbox's checked state. Choose the one that suits your preferred coding style.
