In fall of 1995, Dave Ragget and I worked on a set of extensions to the then proposed HTML 3 to improve the performance of HTML forms with speech interfaces. HTML of today fails rather dramatically at providing semantic or syntactic information about a form -- even more so than Graphical Interfaces like Windows; for instance, consider the fact that HTML markup of today has no provision for any kind of association between an input field and its associated label.
