2.12 FORMS IN HTML
HTML forms are used to collect information from the site visitors. Different types of forms can be created in HTML like
sign up/register, application form, feedback form, query from, etc. The three important components of a form in HTML
are: a <FORM> tag, the input controls and buttons.
The <FORM> tag is used to define a form in an HTML document. It is placed within the <BODY> tag. While designing
and building a form, we use different input elements that allow site visitors to type or select information. These
elements can include text fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, etc. All forms must include a Submit button. When the site
visitor fills in the information, then, it should be sent to the webserver for processing after the Submit button is clicked.
Creating Forms
The syntax for creating a form in HTML is:
<FORM NAME = "Name of the form” ACTION = "Script URL" METHOD = "GET/POST">
...(Input Elements)
</FORM>
ACTION: This attribute specifies what action should be taken once the SUBMIT button is clicked by the user. The
Script URL specifies the location where the data collected by the form is submitted. It also produces a response in
return.
