title: Selecting previous label element JQUERY
body: <p>So I have a form;</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;label for="name"&gt;Job Date&lt;/label&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input id="name" class="required" title="Enter a name!" name="name" type="text" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and some Jquery to cycle through each input with class "required" and see if it is empty/blank and if so give this input a red border color, and also the label assosciated with it a red color;</p>
  
  <pre><code>function checkreview()
      {   
          var errors = "";
          $(".required").each(function (i) 
          {
              if($(this).val() == "")
              {
                  errors += $(this).attr('title')+'&lt;br /&gt;';
                  $(this).css('border-color','#FF0000');
                  //need to select previous label and set color to red                
              }
  
          });
  
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I need a selector that will select the previous label and allow me to give it .css('color','FF0000').</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas how to select the previous label in JQUERY?</p>
