Read chapter 17 in the HTML XHTML & CSS book.  This chapters is about creating forms.  Submission of a form requires a working cgi program on the server to accept your input from the form and to process it.  The cgi programs can be written in may different languages.  Some of the popular ones are Perl, C++, JSP, ASP.NET, or PHP.

In class we will be putting together this form to order t-shirts.

Here is a snapshot of the form and the form variable names.  Also shown is the form action that is called upon submission.  Note:  Pay careful attention to the variable name case.  Variable names are cAsE sEnSiTiVe.

Build the web page containing the form.  Once built and published, test your form.  All input fields will be echoed back if your form is working correctly.
