Chapter 9. Working with HTML Forms

IN THIS CHAPTER

  • An Introduction to HTML Forms

  • Working with Forms

  • Working with Form Objects

  • Building a Jump Menu Navigation

If you've used websites such as Amazon, Yahoo, Google, MSN, ETrade Financial, and eBay, chances are you've used and interacted with forms and may or may not have even known it. Forms are everywhere on the web, and once you know what to look for, they're hard to ignore. Furthermore, they push development to a higher level and begin an interaction with the client or end user. Whether it's through registration forms, mailing lists, site searches, or online ordering, forms facilitate interaction between us as developers and our end users. Forms allow us to be "connected" with our end users by serving as a stepping stone to a whole new medium known as Web Application Development. Covered with more detail in Part V, "Dynamic Web Page Development," Web Application Development, an extremely broad and extensive topic, begins with forms.

As you have done for the rest of the chapters in this book, you can work with the examples in this chapter by downloading the files from www.dreamweaverunleashed.com. You'll want to save the files for Chapter 9 in an easy-to-find location. I'll place mine in C:\Dorknozzle\Chapter09.
