public class FieldsetElement

extends MultiPartElement

The FieldsetElement allows form designers to group thematically related controls together. Grouping controls makes it easier for users to understand their purpose. Grouping can also facilitate tabbing navigation, speech navigation, and make documents more accessible to people with disabilities.

Add InputElements, TextAreaElement, and any other elements that customarily appear on a FormElement, and then add the FieldsetElement to a FormElement.

Use a LegendElement to assign a caption to a FieldsetElement. Setting the AlignType of the LegendElement aligns it relative to its FieldsetElement.

This HTML element is specified by HTML 4.0 and may not be available in all browsers.
