As pure as you can manage, while checking that all slightly older
browsers that you think you have to support actually understand you.
Impurities may add up and make styling and maintenance harder than it
need to be, so only add extras when you can't make it work otherwise.
No need to add extra classes unless you have more than one element of
the same type inside a container you can use to target your element via.
So based on your source-code, the following...
.formcontent legend {font-weight:bold}
...should give you a bold legend-text.
This will work as well...
fieldset legend {font-weight:bold}
...but it depends on what else you have in your page(s). All legends in
all fieldsets will get bold text, you know, but that's all.
Thank you Georg (and others)
I like the look of this approach, but wondered whether it was possible
to make these conditional.
For example, I'd like to set the width of all the "input" form controls
in fieldsets to the same value.
.formcontent input {width:300px}
However, this sets the width of submit buttons as well. Can I restrict
it to inputs of type "text" only? Or do I need to apply the class
explicitly to all the controls?
Thanks again
Edward
