Good evening all,

I know there's two schools of thought regarding forms where one uses a
table and the other a definition list to style and layout the data fields.

I have a simple form on a client's "Contact Us" page, and I wondered if
there's a consensus as to which method is more semantically correct?

Please advise...


There's a simple question I ask myself before I decide whether something goes in a table or not, and that question is:
Is it tabular data?


In this case I'd have to say that a form is _not_ tabular data. Its form data, and thus I'd try to make use of the tags designed to deal with forms:
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>
<label>
<input>
<textarea>


Hope that helps
Darren
