HTML <fieldset> tag

Function:

The HTML <fieldset> tag is used for grouping related form elements. By using the fieldset tag and the legend tag, you can make your forms much easier to understand for your users.

Difference between HTML and XHTML:

The align attribute is deprecated in HTML as well as in XHTML.

Example:

<fieldset style="text-align:right;">
<legend><b>Address Details</b></legend>
Name <input type="text" />
Address <input type="text" />
City <input type="text" />
State <input type="text" />
</fieldset>

This will produce following result:

Address Details Name
Address
City
State
