Form styles with Fieldset tag and option group

I must be living under a rock because I’ve never tried playing with stylizing forms with the fieldset tag! I was reading the picment link below and couldn’t figure out how they were getting the outline around the form in the earlier steps… duh! LOL!

Nor have I tried playing with the option group thing:
Accessible Forms (htmldog)

(usability disclaimer: just because you can change everything about the way your form looks - doesn’t mean you should. Drastically changing form elements has the potential to completely confuse your users, and make your form un-usable. Proceed carefully. You may now return to your regularly scheduled CSS-play.)

    scriptygoddess has an bookmark entry for dealing with form style. I think it's worth keeping a bookmark here too. :)
