Accessibility Information & Tips

• Provide a semantic grouping for related form controls using the "fieldset" and "legend" elements. This is most important for related radio buttons and checkboxes. If desired, CSS can be used to change the visual effect of using the elements. Visit https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H71 for more information.
