Forms

Edit on GitHub

In HTML, forms are used for gathering and sending user input to an external source (like a server) for processing. This is done with the <form> tag, which contains various labels and inputs.

Example

The following example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head> </head>
  <body>
    <form method="post" action="http://server1">
      Enter your name:
      <input type="text" name="fname" />
      <br />

      Enter your age:
      <input type="text" name="age" />
      <br />

      <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
    </form>
  </body>
</html>
