I like Andrew s suggestion  and in fact the CSS rule only needs to be    checked   label      font-weight  bold      I like to rely on implicit association of the label and the input element  so I d do something like this    lt label gt      lt input type  checkbox   gt      lt span gt Bah lt  span gt   lt  label gt    with CSS    checked   span       font-weight  bold      Example  http   jsfiddle net wrumsby vyP7c

This is an example of using the  checked pseudo-class to make forms more accessible  The  checked pseudo-class can be used with hidden inputs and their visible labels to build interactive widgets  such as image galleries  I created the snipped for the people that wanna test    x000D   x000D  input type checkbox    label   x000D    color   ccc  x000D    font-style  italic  x000D     x000D  input type checkbox  checked   label   x000D    color   f00  x000D    font-style  normal  x000D     x000D   lt input type  checkbox  id  cb name  name  cb name  gt   x000D   lt label for  cb name  gt CSS is Awesome lt  label gt   x000D   x000D   x000D
