2,496 PointsLegends or Labels?
Why use legends? why not use the label attribute? To me the legend attribute is the same as the label attribute. Any thoughts?

11,454 PointsLegend should be used to describe group of fields (fieldset) and label should be used to describe only one field. Also most browser display legend tag as display: block and label is displayed as display: inline. So there is difference.
