#HTML <fieldset>

The <fieldset> HTML element is used to group several controls as well as labels (<label>) within a web form.

#Attributes

• disabled: If this Boolean attribute is set, all form controls that are descendants of the <fieldset>, are disabled, meaning they are not editable and won't be submitted along with the <form>. They won't receive any browsing events, like mouse clicks or focus-related events. By default browsers display such controls grayed out. Note that form elements inside the <legend> element won't be disabled.

• form: This attribute takes the value of the id attribute of a <form> element you want the <fieldset> to be part of, even if it is not inside the form. Please note that usage of this is confusing — if you want the <input> elements inside the <fieldset> to be associated with the form, you need to use the form attribute directly on those elements. You can check which elements are associated with a form via JavaScript, using HTMLFormElement.elements.

• name: The name associated with the group.

  Note: The caption for the fieldset is given by the first <legend> element nested inside it.
