However, the information sent by the POST method is not encrypted and can easily be retrieved by a hacker. To ensure security, use a secure connection to a secure server. If the named window is not already open, a new window with that name opens.

For a tutorial on creating forms, see www. For a tutorial on styling forms with CSS, see www. Specifies the maximum number of characters that can be displayed in the field. This number can be less than Max Chars, which specifies the maximum number of characters that can be entered in the field.
For example, if the Char Width is set to 20 the default value and a user enters characters, only 20 of those characters will be viewable in the text field. Although you cannot view the characters in the field, they are recognized by the field object and are sent to the server for processing. Specifies the maximum number of characters that the user can enter in the field for single-line text fields.
Use Max Chars to limit zip codes to 5 digits, limit passwords to 10 characters, and so on. If you leave the Max Chars box blank, users can enter any amount of text. If the text exceeds the character width of the field the text will scroll. If a user exceeds the maximum number of characters, the form produces an alert sound.

For example, you might indicate that the user enters information in the field by including a note or example value. Assigns a name to the button. Two reserved names, Submit and Reset, tell the form to submit the form data to the processing application or script, or to reset all the form fields to their original values, respectively.
Submits the form data for processing when the user clicks the button. Specifies the action to be performed when the button is clicked. For example, you can add a JavaScript behavior that opens another page when the user clicks the button. Checked Value. Sets the value to be sent to the server when the check box is checked. For example, in a survey you might set a value of 4 for strongly agree and a value of 1 for strongly disagree.
Initial State. Lets the server dynamically determine the initial state of the check box. At run time the server reads the database record and selects the check box if the value is Yes.
Sets the value to be sent to the server when the radio button is selected. For example, you might type skiing in the Checked Value box to indicate a user chose skiing. Lets the server dynamically determine the initial state of the radio button. For example, you can use radio buttons to visually present information stored in a database record.

Indicates whether the menu drops down when clicked the Menu option or displays a scrollable list of items the List option. Select the Menu option if you want only one option to be visible when the form is displayed in a browser. To display the other choices, the user must click the down arrow. Select the List option to list some or all the options when the form is displayed in a browser, to let users select multiple items.
Each item in the list has a label the text that appears in the list and a value the value that is sent to the processing application if the item is selected. If no value is specified, the label is sent to the processing application instead. Items appear in the menu in the same order as they appear in the List Values dialog box. The first item on the list is the selected item when the page is loaded in a browser.
Initially Selected. You can create a file-upload field that lets users select a file on their computer—such as a word processing document or graphics file—and upload the file to the server. A file field looks like other text fields except it also contains a Browse button.
The user either manually enters the path to the file they want to upload, or uses the Browse button to locate and select the file. Before you can use file-upload fields, you must have a server-side script or a page capable of handling file submissions.
Consult the documentation of the server technology you use to process form data. File fields require that you use the POST method to transmit files from the browser to the server. File Field Name. Specifies the maximum number of characters the field will hold. If the user browses to locate the file, the filename and path can exceed the specified Max Chars value.
However, if the user attempts to type in the filename and path, the file field will only allow the number of characters specified by the Max Chars value. If a label has been correctly associated with its text field using a FOR attribute, you should be able to click on the label to place the focus inside the text field. This is the desired behavior for accessible forms, as it provides a bigger hit or click area for people with motor impairments who may not be able to precisely click inside the text field.

In this quick and simple tutorial, we will build an email form in Dreamweaver. We will write the backend in PHP. PHP is a simple, easy, popular server-side scripting language.
We will be creating a simple feedback form with fields: name, email, and message. We will also look at how we can label the form elements, align them so that they look good and finally some validation right on the client-side.
On the backend, we will create a simple PHP script which will email the form submissions and also validate the input on the server-side. Validation on the server-side is necessary in case the user had disabled JavaScript on their browser. It is always good to do validations on the server-side as well.
So let us head-on and create our form using Dreamweaver. We will then insert the input elements. This can either be done using code or using the buttons below the menu bar.
For this demonstration, we will do it the easy way and use the buttons.
