Just as a follow-up to my last post, if you put double quotes around the
attributes in your submit button, the WAVE error message will go away
there too.

<input type="submit" name="submit_button" id="submit_button"
value="Subscribe">

WAVE knows you don't need labels for submit buttons, but unfortunately
right now it doesn't process single quotes like it should.
