hello all a quick question..
i am building a static html page, and would like to like one page to another using a button, now using a link is the easier option but i would like the effect of a button without any javascript going off..
so i would like to use a input button but it to link to a html page like an tag can href.
i was thinking along the lines of this example but without the js..
<form>
<input type="button" value="Read more" class="button" onclick="window.location.href='testimonials.html'">
</form>
this doesnt work but i am looking for this functionality?? is it possible?
Just submit the form to the URL.
<form action="testimonials.html">
<input type="submit" value="Read more">
</form>
… but buttons are supposed to do stuff. Links go places. Don't send people mixed messages, use a link.
you've misspelled "onclick" :)
EDIT: if you want to avoid javascript, you can create a button-like link with CSS:
Read More
Try this code:
<form>
<input type="button" value="Read more" class="button" onlick="window.location='testimonials.html'">
</form>

I have the form below ..
<form name="myForm" novalidate>
<label for="test_element">Test</label>
<input required id="test_element" type="text" ng-model="ctrl.test">
<button ng-click="ctrl.save(myForm.$valid)">
Submit
</button>
</form>
I'm using the Dynamic Assessment Plugin from here:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dynamic-assessment-plugin/aahpafpbmmgednbflpalchnlbicaeppi
The tool doesn't give a great example of how to fix the error:
Submit buttons and image buttons allow users to explicitly request submission of the form and to control the change of context. Forms that are submitted by other mechanisms might change the user's context before they are ready, causing frustration or confusion.
What would be the best way?
I dont want to change <button> -> <input type="submit"> since there's angularjs code behind the scenes handling the submit
I have read a little bit about ng-submit, here's the link.
I think for that we can make it something like this:
<form ng-submit="ctrl.save()">
<input type="text" ng-model="ctrl.test">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
I hope that documentation can help you :D
There's no obligation of having one submit button inside a form.
You can view an example in the documentation stating:
Finally, to make the form submittable we use the button element
with no input[type=submit] button.
You can also perfectly have no button at all, for instance a form consisting only in checkboxes.
<button type="submit" ng-click="ctrl.save(myForm.$valid)">
Submit
</button>
I have 2 html files in my desktop(login.html & firstpage.html). I have a button in login.html. when i pressed that button i need to navigate to firstpage.html screen.
I have tried like below; I wrote this in login.html page, But it's not working,
<form name="myform">
<input type="button" value="Enter" width="100px" onclick="<a href ='C:\Users\Desktop\firstpage.html'</a>">
</form>
Could anyone please help me to solve this issue.Thanks
Change the code in
<form name="myform" action="firstpage.html">
<input type="submit" value="Enter" width="100px">
</form>
To just link the two files, all you need is to have them in the same folder, and use this line:
<input type="button" value="Enter" width="100px" onclick="document.location='firstpage.html'">
You do not need a form to do this.
Your onclick handler does not need html in it, just the javascript.
You could also do:
Go to page
Make Slight changes in your code like this
</input>
This should work... :)
on my source i use
<a href='pag.php'><input type='button' value='Next'/></a>
in firefox and crome when i click on the button i'm redirected to pag.php
but in ie it don't work. how can i do?
The simple way is:
<input type='button' value='Next' onclick="location.href='pag.php'"/>
Form buttons are meant to be used for submitting a form to the page specified in the action attribute, not to be wrapped in <a> tags, which is bad syntax. If this is for a multi-part form, simply add the action attribute to the <form> tag like
<form method="POST" action="pag.php">
<!-- your form elements -->
<input type="submit" value="Next">
</form>
And that will submit the form to pag.php. Otherwise, just use a link, or, if you insist on having it look like a button, use an image link like:
<img src="image_that_looks_like_a_button.png">
Hope this helps.
Instead of what you are doing right now, go for:
<form action="pag.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" name="Submit" value="Next">
</form>
But if you want image instead in place of button, go for:
<INPUT TYPE="image" SRC="image location" ALT="Next">
Hope it solves your problem! :)
I have buttons on a page that look like:
<p>
<a href="view.php">
<input type="button" name="view" value="View Database" />
</a>
</p>
IE does not support these buttons or multiple buttons I am not sure which one. Does anyone know how to fix this to work with IE?
Embedding a button within an <a> tag is not normally done, and really doesn't make any sense. If you want your link to look like a button, then just use the <input> tag with some script on the onclick event, or use css to make your link look button-ish (start by using display:block or display:inline-block);
You can't put an input into the tag, instead, you can create a form, and change your button to a submit one. Then you can choose the target url in the form, like this:
<form action="view.php">
<input type="submit" name="view" value="View Database" />
</form>
I would recommend this over using javascript, because buttons are not designed for navigating a site. If you want to submit information, which is what they are used for, you won't be able to do it so cleanly using javascript.
What exactly are you trying to achieve? If you want a custom button to redirect to view.php, you can use onclick:
<input type="button" name="view" value="View Database" onclick="window.location.href='view.php';" />
or something similar.
<input type="button"
onclick="javascript:document.location='view.php';"
value="View Database"/>
Try with this ugly monster:
<input type="button" name="view" value="View Database" onclick="javascript:window.location='view.php'"/>
is it possible to use a button as an hyperlink in html. and it should be working for all the browsers?
If you want to separate content (html) from behaviour (JavaScript), as oppose to what Darrel suggested I would use:
<form action="http://www.google.com">
<input type="button" value="go to goole" />
</form>
Even thought this is not a form proper, it will work fine, and degrade gracefully when JS is disabled.
Not really a hyperlink per se but you can take the user elsewhere with a button.
<input type="button" value="Go To Google" onclick="window.location='http://google.com'" />
As a third alternative to the ones suggested here, you could use CSS to style a hyperlink to look like a button. If it works more like a link (goes somewhere, not performs an action), it may be better this way - for example, as far as I know, search engines may not always submit forms, but they would follow a link.
<form action="file1.php" method="get">
<button type="submit">Submit</button><br>
<button type="submit" formaction="file2.php">Submit to another page</button>
</form>
