With javascript
A simple example
var lblElement = document.getElementbyId("yourlabelsid");
lblElement.innerHtml("Your new updated text in the label");
But try to use a javascript libray like jquery, it has a lot of benefits and ease.
Generically on jquery, to change the markup of any element, we use
$("#theselector").html("the new markup inside the markup");
In case input elements, we use .val();
$(“#mytextbox”).val(“the value in the textbox”);
Based on your description, you want to change the text inside label so a simple example
For this label
<label id="lbl_name">Name:</label>
Use
$("#lbl_name").html("the updated html");
Anywhere you need on the script
