  1. First, we write <! DOCTYPE html> which we used as an instruction to the web browser about what version of HTML file is written in.
  2. Secondly, the <html> tag is used to indicate the beginning of an HTML document.
  3. As above now <head> tag is used to contain information about web page.
  4. In this tag a <title> tag is used which helps us to specify a webpage title. Both <head> and <title> tags are Paired tags. So, both have </head> and </title> ending tags respectively.
  5. Thirdly, <body> tag is used to define the webpage body. All the contents to show on website are written here.
  6. Here, as you see in codes that we create two form tags. Both are same, but with slightly difference. Also, both will work same with some difference which we discuss here.
  7. In first, we create a form and give it value of action. Inside this we create two input tags and then a submit button.
  8. As from browser screen, after information filled when you click on submit button. The webpage named action_page1.html gets opened.
  9. After this we create another form with same as above. But with a difference in submit button.
  10. The difference is that in button there is an attribute named formaction is used with a value. As you see on browser, when you click on this submit button, you are redirected to action_page2.html not on action_page1.html.
  11. Because with the help of formaction attribute we override the action of form. Hence, it is another way to link a page with the help of submit button.
  12. At last, the <body> and <html> tags are closed with </body> and </html> respectively.
