can select the kind of form element you wish to add. Select 'Text Box' (By
default, it will be selected). Now you can see the parameters required for
creating a text box, in the right side - Display Text, Field Name, Value, Size
and Max Length out of which the first two are mandatory, marked with a red

the Value field. Size determines the displayed length of the field and Max
Length specifies the number of characters that can be allowed in the field.

textbox will appear in the output
