Interactive Forms

Why ...
forms? Forms are easy enough to create when they are simple, like search boxes. But what if you need them to be complex? How about changing the forms based on input by the viewer? This Why interactive forms? Forms are easy enough to create when they are simple, like search boxes.
But what if you need them to be complex? How about changing the forms based on input by the viewer? This is where interactive forms using Javascript and HTML can help. I'll use a simple example on how interactive forms can be useful.
The problem I am going to use a business project as an example to teach interactive forms. Imagine that we are creating a ordering system for flowers.
We would like the customer to be able to order a bouquet of flowers. The customer can choose to have any number of flowers in the bouqet from 1 to 6.
For each flower, the customer can choose a type of flower, and there are 3 different kinds of flowers. Now imagine all these options as a regular form.
There would be 18 options to choose from, even if you only wanted one flower! This would be ugly! In this tutorial we will learn how we can show and hide form elements depending on the input by the customer. Now let's get started! Creating the interactive form -HTML We are going to create a page where you can enter the information for ordering flowers.
We've decided on having a drop down menu to select the number of flowers, and then for the number selected, display that number of options to choose the type of flower. We'll start by creating the HTML forms.
First we will write the html code for the form. Number of Flowers 1 2 3 4 5 6 This will create a menu.Next we need to create the form where the customer will choose the type of flower they would like.
We will let them choose between a red rose, a white rose, and a yellow rose. I am going to use radio buttons for the selection.
Here is the code: RedWhiteYellowFor this tutorial, I assume you have a basic knowledge of HTML. All of these pages still need mandatory tags, but I left them out because of the size they would take up.
Notice how I made all the options the same name. This is so they are grouped together, and only one option can be choosen.
This is what it will look like: 0 Red 0 White 0 YellowDuplicate this code 6 times, for each of the flower. But every time you see "color1", change that to a different name so they are all seperate.
I will use "color1", "color2", "color3", and so on. Now we need to put all of this together into an ordering form.
But we need to add something so that the forms can disappear. We will add Article Tags: Drop Down Menu, Interactive Forms, Drop Down, Down Menu Source: Free Articles from ArticlesFactory.com .
