Form elements refer to different types of input elements, check boxes, radio buttons, submit buttons, etc.
HTML forms are used to collect different types of user input.
<form><span style="color: #000000;"> . form elements . </span></form>
elements have many forms, according to different type attributes.
This is the type used in this chapter: (there are also password, checkbox, button, etc.)
Type | Description |
---|---|
text | Define regular text input. |
radio | Define radio button inputs (select one of multiple choices) |
submit | Define submit button (submit form) |
HTML5 adds several new input types:
Note: Input types not supported by old web browsers will be treated as input type text.
Here are some commonly used input restrictions (some of which are new in HTML5):
Property | Description |
---|---|
disabled | Specifies that input fields should be disabled. |
max | Specifies the maximum value of the input field. |
maxlength | Specifies the maximum number of characters for the input field. |

size | Specifies the width of the input field in characters. |

定义单选按钮。
单选按钮允许用户在有限数量的选项中选择其中之一:
<form> <input type=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">radio</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> name=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">sex</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> value=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">male</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> <span style="color: #0000ff;">checked</span>><span style="color: #000000;">Male </span><br> <input type=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">radio</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> name=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">sex</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> value=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">female</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>><span style="color: #000000;">Female </span></form>
定义用于向表单处理程序(form-handler)提交表单的按钮。
表单处理程序通常是包含用来处理输入数据的脚本的服务器页面。
表单处理程序在表单的 action 属性中指定:
<form action=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">action_page.php</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>><span style="color: #000000;"> First name:</span><br> <input type=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">text</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> name=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">firstname</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> value=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">Mickey</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>> <br><span style="color: #000000;"> Last name:</span><br> <input type=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">text</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> name=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">lastname</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> value=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">Mouse</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>> <br><br> <input type=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">submit</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> value=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">Submit</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>> </form>
action 属性定义在提交表单时执行的动作。
向服务器提交表单的通常做法是使用提交按钮。
通常,表单会被提交到 web 服务器上的网页。
在上面的例子中,指定了某个服务器脚本来处理被提交表单:
<form action=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">action_page.php</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>>
如果省略 action 属性,则 action 会被设置为当前页面。
method 属性规定在提交表单时所用的 HTTP 方法(GET 或 POST)
<form action=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">action_page.php</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> method=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">GET</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>><span style="color: #000000;"> 或: </span><form action=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">action_page.php</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span> method=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">POST</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>>
您能够使用 GET(默认方法):
如果表单提交是被动的(比如搜索引擎查询),并且没有敏感信息。
当您使用 GET 时,表单数据在页面地址栏中是可见的:
action_page.php?firstname=Mickey&lastname=Mouse
注释:GET 最适合少量数据的提交。浏览器会设定容量限制。
您应该使用 POST:
如果表单正在更新数据,或者包含敏感信息(例如密码)。
POST 的安全性更加,因为在页面地址栏中被提交的数据是不可见的。
如果要正确地被提交,每个输入字段必须设置一个 name 属性。
本例只会提交 "Last name" 输入字段,因为“First name“没有设置 name 属性:
<form action=<span style="color: #800000;">"</span><span style="color: #800000;">action_page.php</span><span style="color: #800000;">"</span>> First name:
"text" value="Mickey">
Last name:
"text" name="lastname" value="Mouse">
"submit" value="Submit">
