Notes

Do not confuse this element with label, which is used exclusively in basic list items. Generally, label elements mark presentational characters used to set off or instantiate a new list item. fieldLabel elements set forth the type of data to be collected by the user for a particular form field. Since the function of each of these elements differ, so do their semantic identities.
