                  INPUT CONTROLS
                  Input controls are the elements that are used to accept input from the site visitors. All the controls
                  have to be filled in before submitting the form. Now, learn the various types of input controls.


                  Text Input Controls

                  There are three types of text input controls used on forms:
                  Single-line text input control

                  This control is used to enter single-line inputs. It is used as a search box or name. The two attributes
                  associated with single-line text input controls are: SIZE and MAXLENGTH. The SIZE attribute
                  defines the size of the text box and MAXLENGTH defines the number of characters the textbox
                  can hold.

                  Syntax of  single-line text input control:

                  <INPUT TYPE = "TEXT" NAME = "The word that describes the textbox" SIZE = "The width you
                  want to use for the text box" MAXLENGTH = "Maximum number of characters">
                  Write HTML codes for creating a single-line text input control:


                  <!DOCTYPE html>
                  <HTML>
                  <HEAD>
                  <TITLE> Single Line Text Input Control </TITLE>

                  </HEAD>
                  <BODY>
                  <FORM NAME = "Registration From" METHOD = "POST" ACTION =
                  "mailto:niidhiarora@gmail.com">

                  <Hl ALIGN = "CENTER"> Registration </Hl>
                  <B>ApplicantName:</B>
                  <INPUT TYPE = "TEXT" NAME = "APPLI_NAME" SIZE = "30" MAXLENGTH = "20">
                  <BR> <BR>

                  <B>Address: </B>
                  <INPUT TYPE = "TEXT" NAME = "ADDRESS" SIZE = "30" MAXLENGTH = "40">
                  </FORM>

                  </BODY>
                  </HTML>
