Explanation:

  • This HTML code demonstrates a form with an action attribute.
  • The action attribute specifies the URL to which the form data will be submitted upon submission.
  • In this case, the form data will be submitted to "https://www.w3resource.com/html-css-exercise/basic/solution/form-action-answer-demo.php".
  • The method attribute specifies the HTTP method used to submit the form, in this case, POST.
  • Inside the form element, there are input fields for entering user ID and user name information.
  • Each input field has a name attribute corresponding to the data it represents.
  • There is a submit button for submitting the form.
