Hi Howard, If I may add to the excellent advice already offered, and which caters to another aspect of an accessible web form? Please take a look at my Fast Track tutorial "Calling Accessible Context-Sensitive Help with Unobtrusive DOM/JavaScript" at my web page: http://frank.helpware.net.
This concentrates on two accessible methods of adding c-s help to a web form, and also demonstrates form markup structure without depending on table, paragraph, or definition list elements. The majority of the unobtrusive DOM/JavaScript was built with the help and guidance of Gez Lemon of The Paciello Group (TGP), while other js elements are based on designs by Simon Willison and Jeremy Keith. You can view it on line and also download the complete zipped project package containing all external script, css, images and web pages if it suits. Hope this may add a bit more to your info. Kind regards, Frank M.

I'm doing some research on best practices for creating web forms with the following in mind: * Accessibility * Semantic Markup with CSS * Form Layout & Design I would like to come up with some "form templates" for my organization based on best practices and web standards. I was wondering if anyone knew of any resources related to this topic. I've done a Google search for "web form best practices" which came back with a huge number of responses. Any help focusing my search? Many thanks. ~Howard ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ******************************************************************* ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
