FIELDSET
Description
The FIELDSET element is similar to the DIV element but is for the specific purpose of grouping related fields. It is a container and it is nestable. It can contain a single LEGEND that must immediately follow the FIELDSET tag. The legend is used to identify the contained set of fields. This is especially useful to speech-based browsers which can then provide users with a way to move from group to group. This element renders as a box around the group and transposes the legend over the upper-left or lower-left portion of the box depending upon the ALIGN= attribute value on the LEGEND element. The legend element must be the first element within the field set. If it is not, the legend text cannot be rendered as part of the FIELDSET border.
