I am trying to add a custom data-required attribute to an asp Checkbox control, it works fine for all other controls I've used it on, but on checkboxs it renders the checkbox inside a span that has the custom attribute on. I've tried adding the attribute in the markup and tried adding it to the control in the code behind. Any ideas?
