1, What is a form label

The form is used to collect the user's input data, and then submit the data to the server

2, Form composition

A form has three basic components:

① Form tag: This contains the URL of the program used to process the form data and the method to submit the data to the server.

② Form field: contains text box, password box, hidden field, multi line text box, check box, radio box, drop-down selection box, file upload box, etc.

③ Form button: including submit button, reset button and general button;

3, Form label

Form label < form >< / form >

Function: used to declare the form and define the range of collected data, that is, the data contained in < form > and < / form > will be submitted to the server. Syntax:

<form action="url" method="get" ></form>

action = "" server address ""

  method=""  get  /  post          

1.Action attribute


action = "" path of data submission "=" server address

The action attribute defines the action to be performed when the form is submitted. The common way to submit the form to the server is to use the submit button.

Usually, the form will be submitted to the web page on the web server.

If the action attribute is omitted, the action will be set to the current page.

2.method 

Method = "" method = "" data submission method ""

The method attribute specifies the method (GET or POST) to use when submitting the form:

<form action="" method="get">
		
	</form>
<form action="" method="post">
		
	</form>

① When to use GET?

If the form submission is passive (such as search engine query) and there is no sensitive information.

When you use GET, the form data is visible in the page address bar:

http://127.0.0.1:8848/lianxi/03%E8%A1%A8%E5%8D%95.html?usernamme=fds&pwd=123&tj=%E6%8F%90%E4%BA%A4%E6%8C%89%E9%92%AE

Note: GET is most suitable for submitting a small amount of data. The browser sets the capacity limit.

② When to use POST?

If the form is updating data or contains sensitive information (such as passwords).

POST is more secure because the data submitted in the page address bar is invisible.

3.Target attribute

The target attribute specifies where to display the response after the form is submitted.

The target attribute can be set to one of the following values:

valuedescribe
_blankThe response is displayed in a new window or tab.
_selfThe response is displayed in the current window.
_parentThe response is displayed in the parent frame.
_topThe response is displayed in the whole body of the window.
framenameThe response is displayed in a named iframe.

The default value is_ self, which means that the response will open in the current window.

4, Form field object

Form fields include text boxes, multi line text boxes, password boxes, hidden fields, check boxes, radio boxes and drop-down selection boxes, which are used to collect data entered or selected by users

< input > element

The < input > element is the most important form element.

The < input > element has many forms, depending on the type attribute.
