Spring MVC Form Tags
Learn how to use Spring MVC form tags, which provide automatic data binding.
Spring MVC Form Tags are a set of tags provided by the Spring Framework to facilitate the creation and handling of HTML forms in Spring MVC applications. These tags are part of the Spring Tag Library and are designed to work seamlessly with Spring’s form-binding and validation mechanisms. They help in creating form elements, binding form data to model attributes, and displaying validation errors. By using the form tags, we can reduce boilerplate code, and make form handling more consistent and easier to manage within a Spring MVC application.
Examples of form tags include <form:form>
, <form:input>
, <form:checkbox>
, <form:radiobutton
, and <form:select>
etc. The taglib
reference of the Spring Tag Library is needed on the JSP page to use the above mentioned form tags.
