The label element associates a label with a form control.
Labels
Labels are the names and terms used throughout a website that identify menu options, site categories or other elements.
Leading
The difference between the values of line-height and font-size. It is the extra space between the lines of text above and below the font's size.
Line-box
In CSS, a line-box is the box which bounds the highest and lowest points of the inline boxes which are part of the line. It is the distance from the top of the highest inline box in the line to the bottom of the lowest inline box in the line. A line-box is as tall as the inline boxes within a line. That is, the top of the tallest inline box and the bottom of the lowest inline box define the top and bottom of the line box. That determines the separation between baselines.
Line-height
This style sheet property determines the amount by which the height of each element's line box is increased or decreased. Basically it is not a set measurement, but a calculation. In CSS, line-height is the difference between the values of line-height and font-size for a given element. The line-height property specifies the logical height of an inline element. This is the height used in the vertical alignment of inline elements and the construction of line boxes. It defines the height of the inline box for a given element. It determines the amount by which the height of each element's linebox is increased or decreased.
Lines Per Inch
Lines Per Inch is a vertical measure of density but it's not worth worrying about. If you're have your Dots Per Inch high enough then you won't have Lines Per Inch problems and you don't have to bother with it. It refers to the frequency of horizontal and vertical lines on a halftone screen. I think photoshop occasionally brings up the subject of LPI just to make sure amateurs continue to find it impenetrable. When you come across the term, think of lpi as around half or two thirds of Dots per inch and you won't go far wrong.
Liquid Design
A liquid designed web page re-scales to fit different resolutions and different window sizes.
Local Navigation
Local navigation is a type of navigation where choices lead to subtopics defined by one of the main menu subjects.
Look and Feel
Look and feel is the visual appearance that identifies a web site. It is comprised of a consistent color scheme, layout, typography, design treatments and graphic elements - all of which should work in harmony.
Lorem Ipsum
Lorem Ipsum or Lipsum is random text. It is a common piece of garble that designers use as mock-content when testing layouts. It has been well established that if you write anything in a sample layout or design, people will spend more time reading the copy than looking at the full concept. "Lorem ipsum dolor" is sufficiently like ordinary text to show "text goes here" but it doesn't distract the reader.
Lynx
A text only browser that is popular in amongst UNIX users, and commonly used by people with disabilities and those in low bandwidth areas.
