How do I create formatted, multi-line labels?

    I am building a form where many of the fields are radio buttons, but the questions can be quite long and usually contain a bulleted list.

    Is it possible to somehow replace the simple text, single-line labels for most of the fields with a rich-text box, or just allow html formatting?

    I've worked around the issue by using a text field for each question followed by a radio button field with no label, but this does not provide the clearest reporting of submissions.

    Unfortunately, the HTML tags are not allowed in the form labels. This function was removed in our new Form Builder V4 due to security issue.

    However, it seems that this is still working in the Form Builder V3. The BR and UL tags are working in the form label. Here's a screenshot:

    You can change the Form Builder Version in the Account Settings page. Here's the link: https://www.jotform.com/myaccount/settings.

    Hope that helps. Thank you.
