apex:outputLabel
A label for an input or output field. Use this component to provide a label for a controller method that does not correspond to a field on a Salesforce object.
This component supports HTML pass-through attributes using the "html-" prefix. Pass-through attributes are attached to the generated <label> tag.
Example
<apex:outputLabel value="Checkbox" for="theCheckbox"/>
<apex:inputCheckbox value="{!inputValue}" id="theCheckbox"/>The example above renders the following HTML:
<label for="theCheckbox">Checkbox</label>
<input id="theCheckbox" type="checkbox" name="theCheckbox" />Attributes
