For a Project, in which we are not yet allowed to use php, I want to create a login page. I just can't figure out how to make it so the cancel button and the submit button take me to predefined pages. I want to be able to input some dummy data into the username password fields and when I press submit be sent to the "logged in" part of my site.
<button type="submit" value="profil.html">Login</button>
I tried it like that but it doesn't work. I also tried that:
<form action="profil.html" method="get">
You can use little bit of js to achieve it cleanly.
<button value="Cancel" onclick="window.location.href='otherpage.html'"> Cancel</button>
Set the action in the form. Use a submit button to submit the data to that URL.
"Cancel" means "Give up on the form and go somewhere else". To go somewhere else: Use a link.
<button>Login</button>
Cancel

I tried to make button it does not work it is it's supposed to say submit but that it just has a square.I not doing css yet to style my online video instructor has not talked yet so i need help for to have button
on my website and the say submit i do not was wrong did the same i think?? please help me 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺.
I assume you not only want the button to display "submit" but to trigger something when it is pressed, i.e. submit data to the web server. The straightforward way would indeed be to use a form:
<form action="[NAME_OF_SERVER_SCRIPT]">
...
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
I have a form with some text input fields (let's say FirstName and LastName to keep it simple) and then a submit input field at the bottom of the form (with a value of Sign In)
When I type something in one of the text fields (such as typing John for the FirstName) and then press Enter on the keyboard, it automatically triggers the submit input field, as if I have actually clicked the Sign In button.
I understand the reason why it is doing this, however I need to find a work around so that if Enter is pressed, I can carry on typing in the rest of my form. I don't want the form to actually be submitted until someone clicks Sign In.
I have read a suggestion such as changing <input type="submit" value="Sign In">to <input type="button" value="Sign In"> instead, however if I do this it then makes the button un-clickable, and doesn't actually 'submit' the form.
Any suggestions?
I haven't included my code because I didn't feel it was necessary, as I'm sure there's a really simple solution I'm completely missing.. but if I really need to paste my code I can.. thanks.
Inline HTML:
<form onkeypress="return event.keyCode != 13;" ...>
...
</form>
That works by disabling the enter key for the entire form. (take note that this will stop you from making newlines in textareas)

You can not for the input "text" but you can for input "area" because area input is not fixed.
I have a single page React app with a simple login form with two buttons LOGIN and BACK. If I click BACK LastPass still offers to save the entered username/password, even though I didn't login.
Is there any way to tell LastPass that the back button is a cancel button for the login form and that it shouldn't try to save the username/password in that case?
HTML looks something like this:
<input name="username" type="text" />
<button type="submit">LOGIN</button>
<button>BACK</button>
You can use <input type="reset" /> or <button type="reset">.
As its name says, a reset button is ment to cancel a form. When it is activated, all user inputs are cancelled and the fields are reset back to their default values, i.e. the ones that were specified in the HTML code.
In JavaScript, You may intercept an activation of the reset button by using the reset event on the parent form, i.e. form.onreset=..., form.addEvementListener('reset', ...) or <form onreset="...">.
Note that, as for submit buttons, it's a bad practice to intercept the click event directly on the button by using onclick: although there is no universal standard way to cancel the form as there is with the enter key to submit it (escape key don't cancel the form by default), you can't be sure that there is no other way to cancel the form than click on the reset button.
I am making a program that would post on a webpage, to submit the form it has to "click" on a button:
<button class="form" type="submit">Send</button>
From what I know (not much) to submit a POST request when it's INPUT you must do name=value, but I don't know how I could do that with a submit button.
Basically I want to know what I must POST to the website so that it submits the form :p
Here's basic syntax for a form:
<form>
<input name="name" type="text"/>
<button type="submit"> Send </button>
</form>
Whatever backend you are using should be able to read POST request parameter "name" to read what that form contains.
If you're trying to make a form with just that one button, you can do that by just skipping that input element. Of course, there will be no data in that post request, but you can add the action attribute to the containing form and set it equal to a URL where you would like to redirect the user on button click.
How do I do a browse button, that when clicked on will just open the browse box, and store the link to the file in its value, I don't want it to connect to any server or anything (so i'm not sure what to do for the action and method attributes...). Basically after the user browses for a file, they can click another button and an onclick event occurs, but when I try it, it's not functioning properly.
<form action="" method="POST">
<input name="fileupload" id="fileupload" type="file">
<input value="OK" type="submit" onclick="change_bg_img('Untitled.png');">
</form>
You have an input of type="submit". Clicking it will submit the form, so the JavaScript will run, then the page will reload in its default state.
If you don't want to ever submit the data to the server then:
Don't use a <form>
Use type="button" not type="submit"
As mentioned, you don't actually need a form here.
I've made a working example on jsfiddle:

Use a button. And for best practices keep your click event handler out of the markup ;)
