Looking for a tag!

[CooterBrown]

I saw a tag on w3schools.com the other day and now I cannot find it. What it did was encapsulate and put a border around some part of a form that you wanted to seperate from the rest of the page. I will do my best to recreate what it looks like below. If anyone knows the name of this tag I would appreciate it if you could pass it along.

It looked something like this:


_Title Here ______________
| |
| You can put text, |
| radio buttons, or |
| Whatever else you |
| want to enter here! |
| |
|________________________|

I hope someone can help.

You could also do pretty much the same thing with tables. Tracy Dryden

Hi cooterbrown,

The picture you made kind of looks like what is
Delphi called a groupbox. Try searching for that on
the site.

BobbaFet Everyone has a right to my opinion.

No i'm not looking for an inline frame. I'll try the delphi group box. Does anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks for the help everyone but I found the answer somewhere else. For the life of me I couldn't think of the tag name and my illustration has room for improvement.

Here was the tag in case you were curious.

<feildset><legend>Put title here</legend>
In here you can add tables,
list,
control objects
or anything else you want.
</feildset>

I think what you are looking for is <fieldset> & <legend>
Here is an example:

<form name=CBForm><br>
<fieldset>
<legend><b>Make your selection(s):</b></legend><br>
<input name=CB01 type=checkbox> Checkbox01<br>
<input name=CB02 type=checkbox> Checkbox02<br>
<input name=CB03 type=checkbox> Checkbox03<br>
<input name=PB01 onclick=MyCBeval() type=button value=&quot;Enter&quot;><br>
</fieldset>
</form>

Oops! Sorry. I see you answered your own question.

The <feildset> and <legend> tags work in IE for sure. I haven't had the chance to test the compatibility with Netscape or others!
