Use of Forms in HTML

Previously we have seen, Implementing Tables in HTML Web-pages. Now we are going to learn about the Use of Forms & its attributes in HTML. So let's get started...

Forms in HTML

Forms are used to design a webpage for the user to enter required details that are further sent to the server through processing. Forms are also known as Web-form and Html-form. The <form> tag is used to add HTML Form to the webpage for user input.

Syntax :

<form action="" method="" target="" autocomplete="">
    ----
</form>

Uses of Forms :

Forms are used to retrieve data from users or customers.
Forms are used for online surveys.
Forms are used for conducting online exams.

Attributes of Forms

1. action=" "

It specifies the operation that is needed to be performed, once the form is submitted. Generally, input data entered by the user is sent to the server when the user clicks on the submit button.

2. method=" "

This attribute is used to define the HTTP method to perform operations on forms data. It generally accepts two values such as "GET" and "POST".

3. autocomplete=" "

This form attribute is used to specify whether autocomplete is enabled or disabled. It has only two values such as "on" or "off".

4. target=" "

It tells the browser to display the response in a specific window or tab. It uses values as given in the table below :

Tags	Description
_blank	It displays the response in New Tab
_self	It displays the response in Current Window
_parent	It displays the response in Parent Frame

Basic Form Implementation

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title> Form Implementation</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h2>This is the Basic Form Implementation</h2>
        <form action="" method="" target="" autocomplete="">
            First Name : <input type="text">
            Last Name : <input type="text"><br><br>
            User Name : <input type="text"><br><br>

        </form>
    </body>
</html>
