Label text is wrapped but not indent second line

Question

I have a form with limited width, however the label text maybe longer than form width, so the text was wrapped to multiple lines. My problem is that first line is indented because of input element but second line is not, it makes the form not nice.

Do you have any idea to make the second, third ... will be indented as first line, only use CSS?

You could do something like this:

HTML

<form class="form">
    <ul>
        <li>
          <input id="inputField">
          <label for="inputField">Field 1</label>
        </li>
        <li class="checkbox">
            <input type="checkbox" id="input2">
            <label for="input2">Field 2 Label, may be longer than normal, This is an example for this lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem lorem</label>
        </li>
        <li class="checkbox">
            <input type="checkbox" id="input3">
            <label for="input3">Field 3 Normal long</label>
        <li>
    </ul>
</form>

CSS

.form {
  width: 300px;
}

.form ul {
  list-style:none;
  padding: 0;
}

.form ul li {
  overflow:hidden;
}

.form ul li.checkbox input {
  float:left;
}

.form ul li.checkbox label {
  float:right; 
  width:270px;
}

You can also use div's instead of an ul.

Answer 2

text-indent just effected in first line,if you want indent all line, you should use padding and playing around with checkbox input: float:

     .form {
    width: 300px;
  }
#input2{
    float:left;

}
#input2 + label
{
  padding-left: 30px;
display: block;
}

here a jsfiddle

Edit you css like this:

.form {
  width: 300px;
}
label {
  display: block;
  margin-top: -20px;
  margin-left: 20px;
}
