# text\_box

A textbox is a common input control in HTML. It is used to collect user input and allow the user to enter text. The most common use of a textbox is to enter search queries on a web page or to enter login credentials on an online form. It is a common input element found in many software programs

When you click on the text box, a cursor is enabled, indicating the user can begin typing.&#x20;

But, There would be some situation where the user cannot send a value. Might get multiple exceptions / sent value will not get displayed.&#x20;
