HTML 101: Form

 I believe that everyone who has made use of the internet knows what a form is but in case you don't know, a form is a way of receiving data from users for specific reasons.

In HTML forms are created within the <form> tag.

Two basic things that are essential to form are the ability to accept inputs and submit it into the database.

Input is a tag that literally accepts inputs, this can accept multiple types of inputs. Some of the inputs are:

• <input type="text">:  single line text inputs, usually used for name inputs.
• <input type="radio">: this input method is used to produce multiple options for the the users to select one from all the provided options.
• <input type="checkbox">: this input is similar to radio, but unlike radio, it allows users select multiple choices.
• <input type="button">: includes a button in the form
• <input type="submit">: This is the submit button
