Designing a Simple Form

Your first form

The first article in our series provides you with your very first experience of creating a web form, including designing a simple form, implementing it using the right HTML form controls and other HTML elements, adding some very simple styling via CSS, and describing how data is sent to a server. We'll expand on each of these subtopics in more detail later on in the module.

Prerequisites: Basic computer literacy, and a basic understanding of HTML.
Objective: To gain familiarity with what web forms are, what they are used for, how to think about designing them, and the basic HTML elements you'll need for simple cases.
