## Anatomy
-A table is composed of a container element that organizes data into rows and columns. Each cell within the table can hold either plain text or focusable elements. If the table allows multiple row selection, the first column of each row include a checkbox for selecting that row and the first column header will contain a "select all" checkbox.

+
+### Placement
+
+The placement of a search field plays a critical role in its effectiveness and usability. A well-positioned search field ensures users can easily find and use it, enhancing their overall experience on a website or application.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Position the search field prominently.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Don’t place the search field in an obscure location.
+
+
+
+
+### Label
+
+In general label should be short and precise about what is expected from the user. Avoid unnecessary instructional
+verbs (doing words) in your labels and hints because it’s already implied by the input field.
+Avoid placeholder text in most cases, as there’s no need for it (more about it in the next section).
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Use short labels.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Don’t use unnecessary instructional verbs.
+
+
+
+
+### Placeholder
+
+Placeholder text is a short hint displayed inside an input field before
+a user enters a value. To save space, placeholder text is often used instead of a label, as shown in the first
+example.
+This is problematic for the following reasons:
+
+- Placeholder text disappears once a person starts filling in an input field, causing some to forget what the
+ field
+ was for
+- Some might miss or skip fields with placeholder text, as it can look like the field has already been pre-filled.
+- Placeholder text colour contrast is almost always inaccessible, as it’s very light by design. This means many
+ will struggle to read the label.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Provide a short description of what the user will be able to search for.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Don’t use placeholder alone.
+
+
+

-
-
-
-### Required Search Field
-
-The `required` property adds an required icon to the label.
-
-
-
-### Text Field with an Error
-
