Question

I’m writing a landing page to test a business idea.
For testing purpose, I want to write a Credit card number field, to see if the customer is actually ready to buy the product.

As it is only a test, I don’t want this value to be submitted.
Actually for security purposes I don’t even want this value to be sent in the request.

Is a separate form enough?

<form> Sensitive info</form>

<form>Info I want
<input type="submit">
</form>

Answer 1

Yes, only the elements from the one form will be sent (whichever one was submitted).

Alternatively, you could:

• mark the input as disabled (either from the start, or onsubmit)
• remove the name attribute of the input
• put another input later in the form with the same name (it will override the value of the first)
