HTML Forms: Form Submit/Clear
These buttons are actually done with Input tags.
A RESET button can be used to reset all input values to
their defaults, as if no information had been given so far.
The SUBMIT button transfers all the form data to the
URL specified in the ACTION element.
<Form method=POST action="CGI/Menu.cgi">
<Table>
<tr align=left><th>
<input type=submit name=Button value="Home.">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Library">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Search">
HTML:
<input type=submit name=Button value="Head.">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Body.">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Tables">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Forms">
<input type=submit name=Button value="CGI....">
<input type=submit name=Button value="DB.....">
<input type=submit name=Button value="HTTP.">
<input type=submit name=Button value="Style.">
<br>
<input type=submit name=Button value="<">
<input type=submit name=Button value="X">
<input type=submit name=Button value=">">
</Table>
</Form>
- NAME
- If NAME is defined on a SUBMIT button,
the form will transmit the contents
of the VALUE element, thus allowing you to have multiple
SUBMIT buttons.
This can provide some very useful techniques, such as Next/Previous
buttons on slide sequences, or menu buttons without the disadvantages
of graphics.
- VALUE
- Specifies the text to be displayed on the button.
If not defined,
a default of "Reset" and "Submit Query" will be displayed
on the RESET and SUBMIT buttons,
respectively.
