Questions tagged [html-input]

The input element represents a typed data field, usually with a form control to allow the user to edit the data.

The input tag in HTML specifies an input field where the user can enter data.

<input> elements are used within a <form> element to declare input controls that allow users to input data.

An input field can vary in many ways, depending on the type attribute.

Tips and Notes

Note: The <input> element is empty, it contains attributes only and no closing </input> tag.

Tip: Use the <label> element to define labels for <input> elements.
