Issues<br />
Incorrect use of HTML headings. The element should come before the <br />
(see Figure 20).<br />
Recommendation<br />
Use form fieldset and legend elements to improve accessibility. These are<br />
important features used by screen readers to associate instructional text with<br />
corresponding input fields (see Figure 21). Step 1 uses labels to associate<br />
instructional text with corresponding input fields. Step 2 does not use labels at all.<br />
