Тег BUTTON

HTML Tag

The tag is used to create clickable buttons on the web page. The difference between these elements and buttons created with the tag is that you can place the content (images or text) inside the .

Use the element to define a button within HTML form, as browsers display the content of the tag differently.

Syntax

The tag comes in pairs. The content is written between the opening () and closing () tags.

Example of the HTML tag:

html> html> head> title>Title of the document title> head> body> h1>Here will be our button h1> button type="button">Click button> body> html>

Using CSS styles

You can apply CSS styles to the tag to change the appearance of the button, its size, color, text font, and so on.

Example of the tag with CSS styles:

html> html> head> title>Title of the document title> head> body> Ordinary button button type="button">Add to the recycle bin button> hr /> Button with red text button type="button" style="color: red;">b>HTML Book b> button> hr /> Button with increased font size button type="button" style="font: bold 14px Arial;">Download the book button>br /> body> html>

Используя стили можно определить вид кнопки путем изменения шрифта, цвета фона, размеров и других параметров.

Тем не менее, браузеры не выводят сообщение об ошибке и корректно работают с тегом , если он встречается самостоятельно. Однако, если необходимо результат нажатия на кнопку отправить на сервер, помещать в контейнер обязательно.

HTML Button tag

The button options on the web pages are an example of the HTML tag. This tag enables the webpage to show the desired button for the content domain. In this tutorial, you will study the HTML tag.

What Is HTML Tag?

The HTML tag in the webpage represents a clickable button. It can be used to submit forms, trigger events, or perform other actions.

The HTML Tag displays the HTML page with a controller as required with the content domain. That controller is merely a clickable button, used to indulge documents or anywhere in an HTML document as accessible, standard button functionality. The content’s images and text can reside inside that tag, which is the main difference between this element and the buttons created with the element in HTML. Various browsers operate diverse default types for . Here is an example of how to use the tag:

• button : This is the default value and creates a standard button.
• submit : This creates a submit button that submits a form when clicked.
• reset : This creates a reset button that resets a form when clicked.

HTML Tag Attributes

• type : This attribute specifies the type of button. It can be set to «submit» to submit a form, «reset» to reset a form, or «button» to perform some other action.
• name : This attribute specifies a name for the button, which can be used to identify it in the form data when the form is submitted.
• value : This attribute specifies a value for the button, which will be sent to the server when the form is submitted.
• disabled : This attribute disables the button, making it unclickable.
• onclick : This attribute specifies a JavaScript function to be executed when clicking the button.
• form : This attribute specifies the form that the button belongs to.
• formaction : This attribute specifies the URL of the file that will process the form data when the button is clicked.
• formenctype : This attribute specifies the type of encoding to use when sending form data to the server.
• formmethod : This attribute specifies the HTTP method to use when sending form data to the server.
• formnovalidate : This attribute specifies that the form data should not be validated when clicking the button.
• formtarget : This attribute specifies where to display the response after submitting the form.

In addition to the above-mentioned attributes, you can also use standard HTML attributes, such as id , class , and style to customize the appearance and behavior of the button.

Here is an example of a button with some of these attributes:

You can also use JavaScript event handlers, such as onclick , to specify an action to be performed when the button is clicked.

The button element should not be used to create a link to another page. You must use the tag to create a link.

Styling HTML Button

You can also style a button using CSS by adding a class or id attribute to the button element and then styling it using a stylesheet.

Inside a element you can put text (and tags like , , ,

Tip: Always specify the type attribute for a element, to tell browsers what type of button it is.
