Radio Button Label Placement

An external agency did a web accessibility audit against our pages, using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 from www.w3c.org. The agency interpreted one of the guidelines (10.2) to mean that all labels should precede their associated form controls -- even radio buttons.

Does anyone know how to place a radio button's label to the left of the radio button?

The same way you do for the checkboxes.
See here how I do that: http://www.webnauts.net/check.html

Thx for the thought, but the link you provided me shows checkboxes with the labels behind the checkboxes. I am looking for a way to place the labels in front of the checkboxes (radio buttons).

OK. I prepared a temporaly page so you can have a look again: http://www.webnauts.net/test.html

Tell me if this is what you need.
