How To Create Login Form In HTML and CSS

Introduction

HTML (HyperText Markup Language)

This is the most important markup language that can be used to develop websites. It is used to display text, images, audios, and videos on a webpage. The HTML extension is (.html). It is not a case sensitive language.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)

It is used to style HTML documents. CSS can make responsive web pages and is used for styling and its collection of formatting rules. It is used for designing purposes. The CSS extension is (.CSS). All CSS style sheets are case-insensitive, except for parts that are not under the control of CSS. For example, the case-sensitivity of values of the HTML attributes "id" and "class", of font names, and of URIs lies outside the scope of this specification.

CSS has three types

Inline CCS
Internal CSS
External CSS

We can understand HTML and CSS like this way. HTML is like a cake; it is the main thing. CSS is like icing, it gives more attraction and useability for the users. so, you create a webpage without using CSS, it's like a cake made without using icing.

Step 01

Create a new folder for this project and give the name to the folder. After that create HTML and CSS files inside the folder. Then HTML and CSS should file open within a text editor (Ex: visual studio code)

Step 02

Click file, create new 2 files and give names index.html and style.css

Step 03

Now, link the CSS to the HTML file, you just copied and paste this code in the heading tag in HTML code:

 <head>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
 </head>

Step 04

Next, create a structure for the login page using HTML, get to Username and Password.

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Login Form Design</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
    </head>
        <body>
            <div class="loginbox">
              <img src="User.jpg" class="User" >
              <h1>Login Here</h1>
              <form action="">
                <p>Username</p>
                <input type="text" name="" placeholder="Enter Username Here">
                <p>Password</p>
                <input type="Password" name="" placeholder="Enter Password Here">
                <input type="submit" name="" value="Login">
                <a href="#">Lost your Password</a><br>
                <a href="#">Don't Have an Account</a>
              </form>
            </div>
        </body>  
</html>

Description of each HTML tag

<!DOCTYPE html> à Document type (required) defines HTML version

<html></html> àHTML tag identifies page as HTML

<head></head> à Head tag specifies page information

<title></title> àtitle tag assigns name to page, title generally display at top of the browser

<ink> à defines the relationship between the current document and an external resource.

<body></body> àcontains page contains

<div></div> àdefines a division or section

<img> àdefines image location

<h1> àdefines heading levels

<form></form> àused to create an HTML form for user input

<p></p> à paragraph element formats paragraph text

<input> à specifies an input field where the user can enter data

<a></a> à defines a hyperlink, which is used to link from one page to another

<br> à can use line break in most browsers

Now you save and open it in the browser, you can see it like this. You have to decorate and arrange the format professionally. You can use step 05 to decorate it.

Step 05

Next, write code in CSS to apply some style to the HTML so you can change the look of the login page.

body{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    background: url(background.jpg);
    background-size: cover;
    background-position: center;
    font-family: sans-serif;
}
.loginbox{
    width: 320px;
    height: 420px;
    background: #000;
    color: #fff;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    position: absolute;
    transform: translate(-70%,-50%);
    box-sizing: border-box;
    padding: 70px 30px;
}
.User{
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    position: absolute;
    top: -50px;
    left: calc(50% - 50px);
}
h1{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0 0 20px;
    text-align: center;
    font-size: 22px;
}
.loginbox p{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    font-weight: bold;
}
.loginbox input{
    width: 100%;
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

.loginbox input[type = "text"], input[type = "password"]{
    border: none;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
    background: transparent;
    outline: none;
    height: 40px;
    color: #fff;
    font-size: 16px;
}

.loginbox input[type = "submit"]{
    border: none;
    border-radius: 20px;
    background: #fb2525;
    outline: none;
    height: 40px;
    color: #fff;
    font-size: 18px;
}

.loginbox input[type = "submit"]:hover{
    cursor: pointer;
    background: #ff0107;
    color: #fff;
}

.loginbox a{
    text-decoration: none;
    font-size: 12px;
    line-height: 20px;
    color: darkgray;
}

.loginbox a:hover{
    color: #ff0107;
}

After using the CSS code, the output looks like this:
