What is a forgot password page?
Most websites that require a user to log in provide a link titled forgot password or another similar phrase feature. This link allows users who have forgotten their password to unlock, retrieve, or reset it, usually by answering account security questions or sending them an e-mail.
Why do companies give you a link to create a new password when you click forgot password?
Because if a user can log into their account with their known password they know that an attacker hasn't used a password reset link and changed their password. Password resets create noise.
How to add forgot password button in HTML?
