Accessibility of in-field labels and help text labels in input forms



Many newer UI interfaces have a preference for input field labels or help texts to be contained within the UI component itself instead of implementing them as separate labels. I was wondering if anyone is aware of the impact that this has on accessibility for vision-impaired users.

Another thing that is also of interest is where the help text is placed and how this impacts on the way the user uses the input fields.


If anyone has experience with the implementation of these features in accordance with accessibility guidelines, or came across specific problems please contribute to the answers.
