When I have a form like this:

What does the “.” in action stand for?
The
actionattributes tell the form where to post the form data to..Stands for current directory, so I would say this posts to the default document in the current directory.There are several notations for relative paths:
..stands for parent directory.stands for current directory/stands for root directory if the URI starts with it/stands for child directory if the URI does not start with it
