Summary
Use forms the way they were intended. If you use script, ensure that the form can be submitted without it. Avoid accesskeys, as they arenât very useful. Focus instead on simple code and use semantic HTML with CSS rather than layout tables wherever possible to present your content. Explicitly associate your form controls with their labels.
If you do find a legitimate type of control that you must use, a new set of rules will apply to ensure that your new component supports universal design. All this is covered in Chapters 8 and 9.
