I have the html element 'label' but it does not send me to the box when I click on name. Also a large greybox as footer?

<?php 
$pageTitle = "Contact Mike";
$section = "contact";
include('inc/header.php'); ?>

    <div class="section page">

        <!--<div class="wrapper">-->

            <h1>Contact</h1>

            <p> I&rsquo;d love to hear from you! Complete the form to send me an email.</p>

            <form method ="post">

                <label for ="name">Name</label> <input type="text" name="name">

            </form> 

        </div>  

    </div>

<?php include('inc/footer.php'); ?>

I have thee code that the instructor wrote. But when I go to click on "name" to the left of the label element it does not send me ego the text box. Do I have a bug?

I'm also having a problem where my footer is about 20% above about footer grey footer. When I delete the <div class="wrapper"> code it gets rid of the two grey footers and keep the one that as the Facebook and twitter link. Else, I have two big blocks of grey.

<label for ="name">Name</label> <input type="text" name="name" id="name">
