html - Align elements in a fieldset -


i'm trying align combination of labels , inputs. using fieldset > table > tr > td structure. i've read online typically poor practice, however, i'm having difficult time using css accomplish need.

here sample:

td.right {    text-align: right;  }    fieldset {    display: block;    margin-left: 2px;    margin-right: 2px;    padding-top: 0.35em;    padding-bottom: 0.625em;    padding-left: 0.75em;    padding-right: 0.75em;    border: 2px groove;  }
<fieldset>    <table>      <tr>        <td class="right">date of call:</td>        <td><input class="datepicker2" name="calldate"></td>        <td class="right">caller code number:</td>        <td><input class="codemaker" name="callercodenum"></td>        <td class="right">what jurisdiction?</td>        <td><input type="text" name="jurisdiction"></td>      </tr>      <tr>        <td class="right">date of offense:</td>        <td><input class="datepicker2" name="crimedate"></td>        <td class="right">time of offense:</td>        <td><input class="timepicker?" name="crimetime"></td>        <td class="right">number:</td>      </tr>    </table>  </fieldset>

this renders nicely table formatting (3 label/input combinations first row, , 3 label/input combinations second row). there 3 columns.

any input appreciated.

you can replicate table using css display property , values table table-row table-cell etc.

there number of reasons why bad practice use tables layout. quick search return dozens of articles on issue.

i see main reasons as: table layouts not semantic; if not displaying tabular data, don't use table. table layouts not accessible - users using screen reader not happy. once used css provide styling layout find easier maintain.

fieldset {    display: block;    margin-left: 2px;    margin-right: 2px;    padding-top: 0.35em;    padding-bottom: 0.625em;    padding-left: 0.75em;    padding-right: 0.75em;    border: 2px groove;  }    .table {    display: table;  }    .tr {    display: table-row;  }    .td {    display: table-cell;    vertical-align: top;  }    .td.right {    text-align: right;  }
<fieldset class="table">    <div class="tr">      <div class="td right">date of call:</div>      <div class="td"><input class="datepicker2" name="calldate"></div>      <div class="td right">caller code number:</div>      <div class="td"><input class="codemaker" name="callercodenum"></div>      <div class="td right">what jurisdiction?</div>      <div class="td"><input type="text" name="jurisdiction"></div>    </div>    <div class="tr">      <div class="td right">date of offense:</div>      <div class="td"><input class="datepicker2" name="crimedate"></div>      <div class="td right">time of offense:</div>      <div class="td"><input class="timepicker?" name="crimetime"></div>      <div class="td right">number:</div>    </div>    <div class="tr">      <div class="td right">date of call:</div>      <div class="td"><textarea rows="5" cols="15"></textarea></div>      <div class="td right">caller code number:</div>      <div class="td"><textarea rows="5" cols="15"></textarea></div>      <div class="td right">what jurisdiction?</div>      <div class="td"><textarea rows="5" cols="15"></textarea></div>    </div>  </fieldset>
