HTML Form - Text Input Control

Authors may create two types of controls that allow users to input text. The INPUT element creates a single-line input control and the TEXTAREA element creates a multi-line input control. In both cases, the input text becomes the control's current value.

Attributes:

NAME="text"

This assigns a label to the text submitted by the user, thus identifying what the user was responding to when they filled in the text box.

VALUE="text"

Specify some default text for the text box

SIZE=value

Specify the width of the text box in characters.

MAXLENGTH=value

Specify the maximum number of characters that can be written in the text box. If this is greater than can be displayed (as defined by the SIZE attribute, then the field will scroll.

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="My Single-Line Text Box" SIZE=50 MAXLENGTH=75 VALUE="default text">
