INPUT Tag

What It Does:

The Syntax:

<input type="button" value="Press Me!">

The code above translates into this:

• The INPUT tag is empty, it only works with attributes
• In HTML, the input tag has no end tag, while XHTML requires it.

List of common attributes:

• Type = Tells what element to display. Here are some common ones :
  • Text = Shows a 1 line text box.
  • Button = Shows a button with text inside.
  • Checkbox = Something that you could select 0 or more.
  • Radio = Something that you could only select once.
  • Submit = Defines a submit button.
• The submit button will submit data from input inside of a form tag.
• There are many input types that are new in HTML 5 but do not have good browser support.
