I am looking for feedback on two questions, based on the simple form snippet below.
<fieldset> <legend><b>Personal Details</b></legend> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input id="name" type="text" name="name" size="30"> <br> <label for="id">ID Number:</label> <input id="id" type="text" name="id number" size="10"> </fieldset> Question 1: Is it acceptable, or advisable, to use a header tag <h6> in place of the <legend> in order to get cross-browsers consistency when dealing with complex form styling? How much impact might this have on accessibility, if any? Question 2: I don't see many folks using the <label> as a wrapper to contain the input. Any reason not to do this? It allows for the <br /> to be removed via display: block; on the <label> tag as well as allowing users (of most browsers) to click on a much larger label to select the accompanying input. <fieldset> <h6>Personal Details</h6> <label for="name">Name: <input id="name" type="text" name="name" size="30"> </label> <label for="id">ID Number: <input id="id" type="text" name="id number" size="10"> </label> </fieldset> ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
