Attribute: Form

The form attribute specifies one or more forms which an <input> element belongs to. This example shows an input field located outside the HTML form (but still a part of the form):

HTML file: Displayed by browser:
<form action="http://www.w3schools.com/html/action_page.php" id="form1">
First name: <input type="text" name="fname">
<br />
<br /><input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<br /><br /><br /><br />

Last name: <input type="text" name="lname"
form="form1">
First name:





Last name:

Tip: To refer to more than one form, use a space-separated list of form ids. This will not work with Internet Explorer, but should with the other major browsers.
