Forms

The form element groups together input elements; the data the user enters is passed to the server (or can be 'passed' to Javascript code).

Between the <form> and </form>, you can place html tags (p, img, h1, etc).

Form tags:

• <form> Defines an HTML form for user input
• <input /> Defines an input control
• <textarea> Defines a multi-line text input control
• <label> Defines a label for an input element
• <fieldset> Defines a border around elements in a form
• <legend> Defines a caption for a fieldset element
• <select> Defines a select list (drop-down list)
• <optgroup> Defines a group of related options in a select list
• <option> Defines an option in a select list
• <button> Defines a push button
