Input Elements

The <input> element is used to create input fields in HTML forms. The type attribute of the <input> element specifies the type of input field, such as a text field, email field, or radio button.

Here is an example of how to create a text input field:

<input type="text">

Here is an example of how to create an email input field:

<input type="email">

Here is an example of how to create a radio button:

<input type="radio" name="gender" value="male"> Male<br>
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="female"> Female<br>

The name attribute specifies a name for the field, which is used to identify the field when the form is submitted. The value attribute specifies the value of the field, which is sent to the server when the form is submitted.

In addition to the type attribute, the <input> element also supports various attributes that allow you to control the behavior and appearance of the input field, such as the value attribute, which specifies the default value of the field, and the placeholder attribute, which specifies a short hint that is displayed in the field when it is empty.

Here is an example of how to use the value and placeholder attributes:

<input type="text" value="John Doe" placeholder="Enter your name">

The <input> element can be styled using CSS to match the design of the website. It can be placed inside a <form> element or used as a standalone element.
