Password input control
                 This control is same as the text input control, but it masks the characters as soon as the user enters
                 them. The characters entered/typed appear as * instead of normal text.

                 Syntax of password input control:

                 <INPUT TYPE = "Password" NAME = "The word that describes the textbox" SIZE = "The width
                 you want to use for the text box" MAXLENGTH = "Maximum number of characters">


                 Multi-line text input control
                 This control allows us to enter multiple lines. The <TEXTAREA> tag contains the ROWS and COLS
                 attributes, where ROWS indicates the number of rows the text area should accommodate and
                 COLS indicates the width area.

                 Syntax of multi-line text input control:

                 <TEXTAREA NAME = "The word that describes the text area" ROWS = "Number of rows the text
                 box should accommodate" COLS = "Width of the text area"></TEXTAREA>


                 Checkbox Input Control
                 This control is used when multiple options from a group are required to be selected by the site-visitor.

                 When selected, the checkbox is marked with a tick mark. While defining checkboxes, we need to
                 specify the following:
                    The group name should be specified for all the checkboxes by using the NAME attribute.

                    Each checkbox should be specified with a word describing the purpose of the checkbox which
                   is done with the help of the VALUE attribute.
                    The text that needs to be displayed beside the checkbox should be specified.
                 <INPUT TYPE = "CHECKBOX" NAME = "A Word describing the group name" VALUE = "A word
                 that describes the checkbox">


                 Radio Input Control
                                                                                         Life Skills & Values
                 This control is used  when  one out  of the
                 multiple options from a group is required to be       "Keep practising because excellence
                                                                       is a continuous  process  and not  an
                 selected by the site visitor. Only the selected       accident."
                 radio button in a group is filled. While defining                           -Mr. Techie
                 checkboxes, we need to specify the following:
