Cheers - had wondered about using display:none, but always feel a
little annoyed there aren't better ways; it surprises me that an alt
tag on the input type=text / is insufficient.
That's because the alt attribute is only relevant for input

However, it seems that even if I put an ALT on the text field, the
automated WCAG-AA test still fails the form; why??
Because it isn't associated with the text input field, which is what
needs a label.
I could put the label around the image

sort of defeats the purpose in my opinion... ideas?
Both Patrick and Roger are correct. It's the text field that requires
a label in order
WCAG rules? (I would express a view
that it helps visual users).

One other note--does having an initial value in the text field aid blind
readers? Is it advocated by WAI or aid WCAG rules? (I would express a

Any initial value forces users to clear the input first before being
able to input their own
