Summary

• Whenever you want to collect information from visitors you will need a form, which lives inside an element.
• Information from a form is sent in name/value pairs.
• Each form control is given a name, and the text the user types in or the values of the options they select are sent to the server.
• HTML5 introduces new form elements which make it easier for visitors to fill in forms.
