label "for" property

[SeyelentEco]

React v0.4.1 doesn't seem to support to "for" property on labels. Search didn't turn up anything in the github repo about it.

It works properly if you call it htmlFor; #269 is a pull request to make it possible to say for directly.

Thanks.

Since React doesn't allow you to specify a DOM element's id, and since the for attribute only works in conjunction with the id attribute, how did you make this work?

[sophiebits]

React definitely allows you to specify an element's id.

Ahh, my mistake, I had an error in my code. All is well. :)

htmlFor...son of a [redacted]. Took me over an hour to find this. Hehe.

@yatrix7 You should’ve seen a console warning pointing you to the problem.

[yatrix7]

@sophiebits Looking at the console would have been way too easy. :) I'm sure it was there. I was really convinced it was how I'd written my styled-component, so I went down that road until I had an "aha!" moment, remembering React (I'm new!) doesn't always use the html attribute names. Then I felt real dumb.

If u use typescript this error will immediately be shown :)
