If you want people using screen readers to handle forms that have mandatory data don't use the * after the field. This is an all too common mistake, and something the accessibility community really hasn't done enough to correct. The way to make such data accessible to all is to wrap the form elements in a fieldset and give the legend a meaningful title, such as "Required Fields" (or whatever). But beware the bugs that fieldset can cause javascript to through on form elements. The only way to fix this is to use it and report the bugs to the developers. Good to see <dl> being used well. ---- Geoff ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
