By default the label shows up in front of a radio button.
Can you reverse this with just HTML and CSS?
Does anyone have an example?

Can you post the code that you have to make those radio buttons so we can see an example of what you're doing? If you create a radio button as follows, the label should appear after the radio button:
<form>
<input type="radio">Yes
<input type="radio">No
</form>
It should just be a matter of where you've got the label placed in relation to the element itself in your HTML.

18,036 PointsA-HA! I didn't realize my order in HTML would matter. Originally I had:
<label for="yes">Yes <input type="radio" id="yes" value="yes"> </label>
But putting the input then the label, works just fine.

18,036 PointsFor some reason I was thinking I had to embed the button within the label so the label would be clickable.
Not so.
