  1. An HTML text box allows users to input text data in a form. It is created using the <input> element with the type attribute set to "text".

    Example

    <form action="/submit_form" method="POST">
    <label for="username">Username:</label>
    <input type="text" id="username" name="username" placeholder="Enter your username" required minlength="3" maxlength="20">
    <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    </form>
    Copied!

    In this example, a text box is created for entering a username. The placeholder attribute provides a hint to the user, and the required, minlength, and maxlength attributes enforce validation.

    Adding Placeholder Text

    Placeholder text gives users a hint about what to enter in the text box.

    <input type="text" placeholder="Enter your name">
    Copied!

    Making Fields Required

    To make a field mandatory, use the required attribute.

    <input type="text" required>
    Copied!

    Setting Character Limits

    Use minlength and maxlength to set minimum and maximum character limits.

    <input type="text" minlength="3" maxlength="20">
    Copied!
