The look of an HTML form can be greatly improved with CSS:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
input[type=text], select {
width: 100%;
padding: 12px 20px;
margin: 8px 0;
display: inline-block;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}

input[type=submit] {
width: 100%;
background-color: #4CAF50;
color: white;
padding: 14px 20px;
margin: 8px 0;
border: none;
border-radius: 4px;
cursor: pointer;
}

input[type=submit]:hover {
background-color: #45a049;
}

div {
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: #f2f2f2;
padding: 20px;
}
</style>
<body>
