The "name" attribute is used with the <input> element to designate the fields that will appear in the form. The "name" attribute is used to provide a name for the input element, which can then be used to reference the input field when the form is submitted. When the user submits the form, the name/value pairs of each form field are sent to the server as a set of variables that can be processed by a server-side script. For example, the following HTML code creates an input field for the user's name: <form action="submit-form.php" method="post"> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input type="text" id="name" name="user_name"> </form>
