The Low Down
The formaction
attribute forces a form to direct to the specified URL instead of the URL specified as the value of the action attribute in the <form> element.
- Valid for submitting elements, including
<input
type=submit>
and<input type=image>
and<button>
. - Used to override the default form action. Possible use case: “Send to Marketing” / “Send to Support”
- Not sure exactly when support in Safari began: it didn’t work in Safari 5.0.3 but does now in 5.2. Also fixed from iOS 4 to 5.
