All of your efforts in building a form to collect information will be usless, if the data is not sent to the server. This action is accomplished through a ‘submit button’ allowing the visitor to send their information to you.
<INPUT TYPE=”submit”>
This line of HTML code defines the INPUT as being submit where the text inside the quotes ( “submit“) will appear in the button.
Since computers don’t have erasers, you need to have a method for the visitor to correct, erase or delete their information if they want to. This is accomplished through a ‘reset button’. This allows the visitor to start over with a clean form.
<INPUT TYPE=”reset”>
This line of HTML code defines the INPUT as being reset where the text inside the quotes (“reset” ) will appear in the button.
Putting together all of the information contained in the HTML Form posts will result in your ability to present a professional looking form that is easy for the visitor to use and collects all the infomation needed.
