body: <p>What does it mean when the form <code>action</code> attribute is "#" (number/pound symbol/sign/character)?</p>
  
  <p>What happens when a form input's <code>formaction</code> attribute is set to "#"? Does this prevent the input from being submitted to the server?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;form method="GET" action="example.php"&gt;
      &lt;input type="text" size="20" name="text1" value="text1" formaction="#"/&gt;
      &lt;input type="text" size="20" name="text2" value="text2"/&gt;
      &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit"/&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  </code></pre>
