apex:form

apex:form, it is a section of visualforce page that allows users to enter input and then submit it with command button or link.

<apex:page standardController="Account">   

    <h1>Update Account Details</h1>   

    <apex:form>   

        <apex:inputField value="{! Account.Name }"/>       

        <apex:commandButton action="{! save }" value="Save" />   

    </apex:form>   

</apex:page>
