Practice Exercise: Form Techniques
  
                  
Instructions:
  Create HTML forms and use PHP to process data collected and output results for
  each technique. Reference the "HTML/PHP Program Example" named 
  "Form Techniques". 

1. Prepare a form for data collection with labeled text boxes. The form start 
   tag is to have a method attribute specifying the "post" method and an action
   attribute pointing to a php script to process collected data. After the start
   include unpaired input components(tags) for two data items each having an 
   attribute for the text(box) type and for a name specifying a parameter to 
   pass to a script for processing. Include another input component with type 
   attribute for a "submit" button and a value attribute for the string "enter".

   
   

   
   
2. Text area:
   Prepare a form that includes a textarea with multiple rows and columns. Code
   PHP statements to verify data was submitted, then display the box contents or
   an exception message.
   
   
   
   
   
      
3. Radio buttons:
   Code an HTML form that displays a set of radio buttons for mutually exclusive
   choices. Use PHP to display the value associated with the button clicked (or
   that no button was clicked).
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. DropDown List:
   Prepare a form with a dropDown list of choices. Prepare PHP to determine and
   output results from the option chosen. Consider having a default option.
   
   
   
   
   
   
5. CheckBox:
   Construct a form with check boxes for multiple choices. Use PHP to test 
   whether boxes were checked then loop through statements to display each
   choice; otherwise output a message to show no selection was made.





6. Menu:
   Write HTML statements with address tags for linking to forms with: 
   a) textbox area, b) checkBoxes, c) radio buttons, and d) a dropDown list.
