Handling Forms & User Input

What's the advantage of using FormData for form processing?

form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
  e.preventDefault();
  const formData = new FormData(e.target);
  const data = Object.fromEntries(formData);
  // Process form data
});

It's faster than manual processing
It automatically validates the form
It handles all form inputs including files
FormData provides comprehensive form data handling: 1) Automatically collects all form inputs including file uploads, 2) Properly handles multiple values from checkboxes and select-multiple, 3) Works seamlessly with XMLHttpRequest and fetch for AJAX submissions, 4) Maintains proper encoding for special characters and file data, 5) Can be easily converted to JSON or other formats using Object.fromEntries(). This makes it much more reliable than manual form data collection.
