If you are depending on image maps to guide people through your home pages, these users will be at a loss. A typical approach is one that allows users to choose between both graphical menus and standard text menus. You should refer to the references in Appendix A for tools to assist you in creating image maps and for more details on the coordinate specifications for image maps. 7.3 Forms Forms are currently the only way to get any appreciable user input. Note, a clever person might be able to get sufficient information from an image map, but this is not very efficient.

Each field has a type and a name. This method has been replaced by post because the get function tried to send everything to the server as one block and could lose the end of transmissions if the block was too large. The only reason to mention this is that if you are designing a program to generically parse information from a form, you should consider get as well as post . Below, we list several of the field types supported under HTML 2.0. Again, you should take a look at the references in Appendix A for further information.
