Online form
A method commonly used on the Internet to contact a website operator or to order goods. One fills in the relevant fields with data according to the instructions and usually clicks on a send button. The contents of the form are then either sent to the recipient by e-mail and transferred directly to a database.
Components
There are various input fields in web forms such as a single-line text input field, password field (masked input), multi-line text input field (textarea), selection lists (drop-down list), radio buttons (selection of one option), checkboxes (selection of multiple options), fields for file upload, hidden form fields, click buttons for confirming or resetting the entries.
Checking the input data
A check of the input data in web forms should be carried out to avoid spam. Here, a captcha procedure such as the Google Recaptcha is suitable, which filters out spam and robots relatively reliably.
