Comment:
If I used the required attribute in any radio buttons or checkboxes the form
was requiring that all boxes or buttons were selected, rather than only
requiring one of the options to be selected. However, if i put the required
attribute in the fieldset tag, which makes more sense because it is the field
that you are requiring not any of the specific options, then it worked
perfectly. Love all the work you are doing with HTML5 and CSS3. They rock!!!!

    <thetext>required=&quot;&quot; on type=radio should just mean &quot;one of this group&quot;, per spec.
required=&quot;&quot; on type=checkbox should just mean &quot;this checkbox&quot;, per spec.
required=&quot;&quot; on &lt;fieldset&gt; should do nothing, per spec.

Does this not match browsers? Do you have a test case showing what you mean?</thetext>
