Hi Mike, Thanks for the reply. When you say fieldset labelled, you mean the legend, right? I've actually not been using a legend tag in this instance because the design doesn't warrant it. Case by case basis I guess. But yes, both you and Jens are right that it depends on the content. Cheers

That was my thinking originally Stuart, which is why I put up the post. The submit button isn't part of a group, so I thought it shouldn't be in a fieldset. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stuart Foulstone Sent: Friday, August 08, 2008
