To group form elements
You can visually indicate that particular forms are related by placing them within a bounding box and displaying a
caption over the group.

The bounding box and caption may not render correctly in all browser versions. Be sure to preview your form in
web browsers and from your web server.

Providing form navigation
You can make your forms easy to navigate by specifying a tabbing chain or assigning a keyboard shortcut that applies
focus to a particular form element. A tabbing chain lets you define the order in which form elements are selected
when viewers press the Tab key repeatedly.
