Label

You can use the label option to specify the content of the label. To set the content, you can use encoded text.

Set the Label Text

To customize the text of the label, use the label option.

    <input id="checkbox" />

    <script>
        $("#checkbox").kendoCheckBox({
            label: "CheckBox Label"
        });
    </script>

Encoded Label

The label of the CheckBox can be either an encoded text or HTML string. By default, the label is encoded. The example below demonstrates how an HTML string can be rendered as a CheckBox label.

    <input id="checkbox" />

    <script>
        $("#checkbox").kendoCheckBox({
            label: "<strong>Label one</strong>",
            encoded: false
        });
    </script>
