No need to apologize. The answer to your question: No. What you *could* do is: <label for="filterId" class="MAKE_IT_DISAPEAR_VIA_CSS">Search</label> <input name="filterId" value="" id="filterId" type="text" /> <input name="submitSearch" value="Search" type="submit" /> ...if the "MAKE_IT_DISAPEAR_VIA_CSS" requirement is there for "design" issues (although I'm sure there would be at least one voice which would argue that it should be visible to all users...)
