HTML Forms and Their Elements

HTML Forms and Common Form Tags

HTML forms are used to collect information from users through a webpage. The <form> tag is the main container that holds different form elements such as text boxes, buttons, radio buttons, checkboxes, and drop-down lists. Every form element has its own purpose. For example, the <input> tag is used to create different types of input fields, <label> is used to describe an input field, <textarea> allows users to enter multiple lines of text, and <select> with <option> is used to create a drop-down list. Tags like <button>, <fieldset>, and <legend> help organize the form and make it easier to understand.
