aria-labelledby

Applies to

## Notes

Remarks

Used in Roles	No role required.

One or more [**id**](/html/attributes/id) properties may be specified. A list of **id** properties is returned by Microsoft UI Automation. In addition to providing the **ariaLabelledby** property, you should also use a **label** element to indicate a label for previous versions of the browser.

Note For cross-browser compatibility, always use the WAI-ARIA attribute syntax to access and modify ARIA properties, for example object.setAttribute("aria-valuenow", newValue). If more than one id is specified, only the first id is recognized by Windows Internet Explorer 8. Note Recursive use of ariaLabelledby is not supported. An element that is using ariaLabelledby should not reference another element that is also using ariaLabelledby.
