Dreamweaver Chapter 4

Common Gateway Interface (CGI)- When a browser collects data, the data is sent to a Hypertext Transfer Protocol server specified in the HTML form.

GET Method- Sends the data with the URL

POST Method- More efficient client because it sends the data to the application as standard input with no limits.

Target-  Specifies the window or frame in which to display the data after processing if a script specifies that a new page should be displayed.

Method- Indicated the method by which the form data is transferred to the server.

Enctype- Specifies a MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extentions) type for the data being submitted to the derver software will know how to interpret the data.

Class- Sets style sheet attributes and/ir attaches a style sheet to the current document.

Textfield- Assigns a unique name to the form object.

Labels- identify the type of data to be entered into the text field form object. 

Behavior- Is a combination of an event and an action.

Javascript- Scripting language written as a text file. I would use this for stuff needing scripting language.

Validate Form- Behavior verifies that the user has entered data into each designated field.
