7:- <form>tag
HTML <form> Tag :-
The <form> tag is used to add HTML forms to the web page for user input. Forms are used to
pass the data submitted by the user to the server. The data is sent when pressing the "Submit"
button. If there isn’t such button, the information is sent when the "Enter" key is pressed.
Syntax
The <form> tag comes in pairs. The content is written between the opening (<form>) and closing
(</form>) tags.
The <form> element contains other HTML tags, which define the input method of data:
The <input> tag defines a user input field.
The <textarea> tag defines a form field to create a multiline input area.
The <button> tag is used to place a button inside a form.
The <select> tag sets up a control for creating a drop-down list box.
The <option> tag defines the items in the drop-down list set by the <select> tag.
The <optgroup> tag groups related data in the drop-down list set by the <select> tag.
The <fieldset> tag visually groups the elements inside the form set by the <form> tag.
The <label> tag sets the text label for the <input> element.
The <legend> tag defines the header for the <fieldset> element.
Example of <form>tag:-
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of the document</title>

Chapter no.8:- DHTML And DOM And CSS
DHTML:-
DHTML stands for Dynamic HTML, it is totally different from HTML. ... The DHTML is based on the
properties of the HTML, javascript, CSS, and DOM (Document Object Model which is used to access
individual elements of a document) which helps in making dynamic content. It is the combination of
HTML, CSS, JS, and DOM.
DHTML - HTML Document Object Model (DOM)
The DOM presents HTML as a tree-structure (a node tree), with elements, attributes, and text:
The HTML DOM is:
A standard object model for HTML
A standard programming interface for HTML
Platform- and language-independent
WHAT IS CSS:-
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
CSS describes how HTML elements are to be displayed on screen, paper, or in other
media
CSS saves a lot of work. It can control the layout of multiple web pages all at once
External stylesheets are stored in CSS files
CSS Syntax:-
A CSS rule-set consists of a selector and a declaration block:
The selector points to the HTML element you want to style.
The declaration block contains one or more declarations separated by semicolons.
Each declaration includes a CSS property name and a value, separated by a colon.
A CSS declaration always ends with a semicolon, and declaration blocks are surrounded by curly
braces.
SOME EXAMPLE OF CSS:-
<html> <head> <style>
p {color: red; text-align: center;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World!</p>
<p>These paragraphs are styled with CSS.</p> </body> </html>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OUTPUT :-
Hello World!
These paragraphs are styled with CSS.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example Explained

color is a property, and red is the property value
text-align is a property, and center is the property value
