I have a directive that can be used multiple times on a page. In the template of this directive, I need to use IDs for an input-Element so I can "bind" a Label to it like so:
<input type="checkbox" id="item1" /><label for="item1">open</label>
Now the problem is, as soon as my directive is included multiple times, the ID "item1" is not unique anymore and the label doesn't work correctly (it should check/uncheck the checkbox when clicked).
How is this problem fixed? Is there a way to assign a "namespace" or "prefix" for the template (like asp.net does with the ctl00...-Prefix)? Or do I have to include an angular-Expression in each id-Attribute which consists of the directive-ID from the Scope + a static ID. Something like:
<input type="checkbox" id="{{directiveID}} + 'item1'" /><label for="{{directiveID}} + 'item1'">open</label>
Edit:
My Directive
module.directive('myDirective', function () {
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope: true,
templateUrl: 'partials/_myDirective.html',
controller: ['$scope', '$element', '$attrs', function ($scope, $element, $attrs) {
...
} //controller
};
}]);
My HTML
<div class="myDirective">
<input type="checkbox" id="item1" /><label for="item1">open</label>
</div>
HTML
<div class="myDirective">
<input type="checkbox" id="myItem_{{$id}}" />
<label for="myItem_{{$id}}">open myItem_{{$id}}</label>
</div>
