When I first stumbled upon fieldset and legend, I didn’t know much about HTML and especially not about accessibility. Everything I noticed was the special way a legend is displayed inside a fieldset – or rather: alongside the border of a fieldset.

Fast forward to (kind of) today: while working on a contact form, I first could get my hands on this element and learned more about it.
