I wanna to point the attention about this: "Context Sensitive Help Attribute for HTML Introduced for Web Authors. Web/HTML authors may now use the newly defined ContextHelp attribute for form input or other elements. JAWS will tell the user when a field has such extra help whenever it exists. You can choose to review the help using speech or Braille with INSERT+F1 or ignore it. The GetObjectHelp script function has been updated to support this attribute which we will be sending to the WAI as a recommended option to consider as a standard. We will be updating our HTML Challenge to include examples of this as well as other areas of our Web Content. GetObjectHelp also returns the acc_help for MSAA and the description for Java objects. For a demonstration of how this can be used, use the following HTML source: <P><LABEL for=Mname >Mother's Name: </LABEL><BR><INPUT id=Mname name=Mname ContextHelp="For this field make sure you enter your mother's maiden name."></P>" Instead of ContextHelp why they don't propose the "title" attribute that is valid for the <input> ag[1] ? ContextHelp is not defined by HTML/XHTML so it is not possible to use it...
