I have always placed the text labels for radio buttons and checkboxes to the right of the input. The WebAIm article on forms uses this layout as well. However, I need to ask, is there an accessibilty reason for doing this? IS there a Web standard for doing this/ Or is this just a convention. I have a developer who wants to put the labels on the left
