Dreamweaver: Creating Simple Forms

E-commerce and online trade requires you to enhance and increase the use of a web page. For any business running you need to provide your contact details so that the customers can contact you in case of emergencies and whenever they require.

Hence whenever building up a page for ‘Contact Me’ section for your site, you need to use some quick forms just the way quick answering machines are used to answer your calls in your absence. Make sure to use these forms for website customization to have a good designed website.

Adobe Dreamweaver is a tool that has different tools to build forms and insert the same in your web pages. It has features to edit these forms as well. The insert bar in the Dreamweaver software can help in adding array of forms and forms field to standardize and customize the forms.

One can include different form fields, including fields like Text Fields, Hidden Fields, Text Area, Check Boxes, Radio Buttons, Radio Groups, Button, Labels, and further advanced items as well such as List Menus, Jump Menu, File Field, Image Field, and Fieldset.

Let us begin by covering only basic Form fields. Hence we should first turn off the Form Accessibility option.

This can be done by clicking on the Edit tag on the menu bar, and then going on to the preferences tag from there where in finally accessibility category can be unchecked and turned off.

Tasks for Adding of a form

Three different tasks are involved in adding a simple functional form to a web site.
