From my experience, the best practice, currently, is using Description
lists; however, my concern with this method is the lack of semantic
grouping when using this set of elements.
Another method I have used is using an Unordered list to group each
field inside of a list item. However, this doesn't seem like it makes as
much sense, semantically, as the Description list.
What do you all think, and how do you go about marking up your forms in
HTML5?
HTML5 does not add any new semantics or constructs to mark up the
structure of forms, it only adds new types, a few features (autofocus
for instance) and validation functionality.
How you actually structure the lot is still as before (and there are
still likely heated arguments over which way is good or
not...personally, I just use paragraphs, as the extra structure of lists
is just overkill in my opinion)
