Ive put together a quick article regarding forms. Ive had to place it on some random server at work for now.
http://www.viberate.co.uk/ws/styling-a-form/styling-a-form.html Theres 3 pages in total, the last page goes through 3 methods of creating a form with and without a DL. Its been created for use Without CSS, and focuses on accessibility, but with CSS applied to the forms anything can be achived. Ive tryed various form layouts using the DIV method and they work. Enjoy :) On 5/22/07, Thierry Koblentz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

To paraphrase the previous message,a definition list is for lists of definitions I don't agree with this definition. For example, the specs [0] say they can be used to mark up dialogs. Also, Joe Clark said [1]: <quote>I think it's just fine and dandy to use definition lists to mark up appositional pairs. Such usage is not prohibited by the spec, which implies such usage is permitted.</quote> I believe "appositional pairs" makes a lot of sense [2]. I agree that DLs are "abused" and that there are better suited elements to mark up forms, but I also think many people get the wrong idea when it comes to what Definition Lists are supposed to be used for.
