Remarks

The BeginForm method renders a form that will be handled by a controller action method.

You can use this method in a using statement. In that case, the method renders the closing </form> tag at the end of the using block.

Overloads

Maybe hrusi is trying to say that it might be nice to have some documentation on the purpose of the different overloads.

Look ma - C# has method overloading!

"Writes an opening <form> tag to the response. When the user submits the form, the request will be processed by an action method."
Really? I'm enlightened!!

What a joy to have 20 different methods that can do the job!!

Those arguments are just to show the C# supports method overloading, isn't it?

No? Oh, let me see I must have missed the manual.

The page clearly explains what the different overloads do, isn't it - "Writes an opening <form> tag to the response. When the user submits the form, the request will be processed by an action method." So stupid of me!
