validation - How to Indicate Required Fields? -


What is the best way to point out the required fields?

Is a red starring enough to have labels in each field? Do you also need to explain to those words which means red star?

What if all areas are needed? Do you still have a red star?

I think this is a very subjective question. I personally think that the asterisks are quite broad that they do not need an explanation, but can contradict another argument. I am sure. I like putting the word "required" in small text next to the required field, it skirts the first issue and works well with the screen reader. For some great examples, check out this link:

Some fields are filling the background color of themselves to avoid. I have seen it on some sites and it is completely incompatible with the screen reader, can give problems to colorful visitors, and can also cause problems on poor LCD monitors.
