3. More Complex Tabular Form

The contents of the following form replicates the contents of the previous form, Form 2, but is more reliant upon visual associations. Note that the first form control, the text-input box, has two labels associated with it: the first describes the function of the form control ("What Do You Want to Find?"), while the second informs the user (especially one who is attempting to process the form non-visually) that there are more form controls available with which it is possible to fine tune one's search. This is an attempt to suppress the instinctual assumption many users make when they aurally or tactilely encounter a "Submit" button--that they have reached the end of the form.
