Label

Updated on Sep 8, 2026

You can use the label option to specify the content of the label. To set the content, you can use encoded text.

Set the Label Text

To customize the text of the label, use the label option.

Example

View Source

    <input id="radiobutton" />

    <script>
        $("#radiobutton").kendoRadioButton({
            label: "RadioButton Label"
        });
    </script>

Encoded Label

The label of the RadioButton can be either an encoded text or HTML string. By default, the label is encoded. The example below demonstrates both scenarios.

Example

View Source

    <input id="radiobutton"  name="radioBtn" />
    <input id="radiobutton2" name="radioBtn" />

    <script>
      $("#radiobutton").kendoRadioButton({
        label: "<strong>Label one</strong>"
      });
      
      $("#radiobutton2").kendoRadioButton({
        label: "<strong>Label two</strong>",
        encoded: false
      });
    </script>
