Forms are an important part of Web design because they allow us to collect data from our visitors. Forms can add interactively to our Web pages and perform a lot of useful functions.
In order to create forms, you have to know how to put the form elements on your page. However, there is another important part to creating forms. That is making the form work with a script that will take the data entered by your visitors and process it in some way. Your choice of a script depends upon the purpose of your form. Some forms interact with a JavaScript that is coded into the Web page and is run by the visitor's browser. The large majority of forms are processed by a script that is resident on a remote server, however. When the user fills in his data and then clicks the submit button, the data is sent to the script whose address is coded into the form tag.
