Hello Greg,

If I understand what you're asking, I *think* you could do something like 
this:

<label for="amt">Balance is within <input type="text" name="amt" id="amt" 
value="$" /> of my credit limit </label>

Then you can style the label to look right by controlling font-size, etc, 
and you could even style that input to look as it does in the email.

input#amt {
  border : 0;
  border-bottom : 1px solid #000;
}

I really don't understand what you're asking for regarding the select at the 
end.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

Subject: [WSG] Accessible, complex forms


I have a dilemma that I hope someone can advise me on.  A client wants a 
fairly complex form that will have input fields in the middle of a line of 
text (think "adlibs"), and then a select box at the end of the line. For 
example:

[th]  Alert  ...  [th]  Status or delivery choice
[td]  Balance is within $_____  of my credit limit    ....    [td]  select 
box [email/sms/both]

I hope that example made sense.  The problem we are facing is with screen 
readers, and our approach so far has been to create invisible labels with 
css.

Is there a more accessible way to make this type of form more accessible?

Thanks in advance,

Greg
