title: what do <form action=“.”>
body: <p>I have a basic question. I cannot find an explanation of form action="." despite searching for  on google, www.w3schools.com, etc...</p>
  
  <p>Anyone know what the . action means for forms? Is it specific to Django? Bootstrap?</p>
  
  <p>Code below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{% extends "Blog.html" %}
  {% block blog%}
    &lt;h1&gt;Create an account&lt;/h1&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;Please, sign up using the following form:&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;form action="." method="post"&gt;
      {{ user_form.as_p }}
      {% csrf_token %}
      &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type="submit" value="Create my account"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;/form&gt;
  {% endblock %}
  </code></pre>
