The FormExtensions class contains methods that extend the HtmlHelper class. Each extension method renders an HTML form element. The BeginForm method renders a form that will be handled by a controller action method. The BeginRouteForm method renders a form that will be handled by the URL that is identified by specified route parameters. The EndForm method renders the closing element for a form.
This example shows two ways to create the same form in ASP.NET MVC. The first way uses the Using statement. The second way uses the MvcForm class directly.
