How to Create Contact Form using HTML and CSS

Today we are going to create a contact form using Html and Css but first, let me introduce what exactly a contact form is.
A Contact Form is a short web-based form published on a website. Any visitor can fill out the form and submit it to send a message to the site owner.
Publishing a contact form makes it easy for new customers to get in touch.

HTML Code For Contact Form

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="main">
<h2>Contact Us</h2>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
<input
type="text"
size="33"
placeholder="Enter Your Name"
id="firstname"
autofocus
/>
<input
type="email"
id="eid"
placeholder="Enter Your Email"
size="33"
/>
<div id="numb">
<select name="telcode" width="5">
<option selected>+91</option>
<option>+61</option>
<option>+54</option>
<option>+32</option>
<option>+33</option>
</select>
<input
type="tel"
size="25"
placeholder="Contact Number"
id="mobno"
maxlength="10"
/>
</div>
<textarea cols="20" rows="6" id="msg" name="msag" placeholder="Enter a Message"> </textarea>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="Send Message" />
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This is the basic structure of our Contact form but this is not looking good as you see, so let's style it using css.
