If you are receiving any value from the get method(URL) which you want to set as id of a form then you have to assign it to a variable like




 

So $myid variable contain a name which you're adding to your form as id.

The HTML id attribute is used to specify a unique id for an HTML element.

You cannot have more than one element with the same id in an HTML document.


Using The id Attribute

The id attribute specifies a unique id for an HTML element. The value of the id attribute must be unique within the HTML document.

The id attribute is used to point to a specific style declaration in a style sheet. It is also used by JavaScript to access and manipulate the element with the specific id.

The syntax for id is: write a hash character (#), followed by an id name. Then, define the CSS properties within curly braces {}.

In the following example we have an

element that points to the id name "myHeader". This

element will be styled according to the #myHeader style definition in the head section:

Example






My Header

Note: The id name is case sensitive!

Note: The id name must contain at least one character, cannot start with a number, and must not contain whitespaces (spaces, tabs, etc.).


Difference Between Class and ID

A class name can be used by multiple HTML elements, while an id name must only be used by one HTML element within the page:

Example


My Cities


London


London is the capital of England.

Paris


Paris is the capital of France.

Tokyo


Tokyo is the capital of Japan.

HTML bookmarks are used to allow readers to jump to specific parts of a webpage.

Bookmarks can be useful if your page is very long.

To use a bookmark, you must first create it, and then add a link to it.

Then, when the link is clicked, the page will scroll to the location with the bookmark.

Example

First, create a bookmark with the id attribute:

Chapter 4

Then, add a link to the bookmark ("Jump to Chapter 4"), from within the same page:

Or, add a link to the bookmark ("Jump to Chapter 4"), from another page:

Jump to Chapter 4
