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.
