title: Create a Block Element Bootstrap Button
challengeType: 0
forumTopicId: 16810

## Description
<section id='description'>
Normally, your <code>button</code> elements with the <code>btn</code> and <code>btn-default</code> classes are only as wide as the text that they contain. For example:
<code>&lt;button class="btn btn-default"&gt;Submit&lt;/button&gt;</code>
This button would only be as wide as the word "Submit".
<button class='btn btn-default'>Submit</button>
By making them block elements with the additional class of <code>btn-block</code>, your button will stretch to fill your page's entire horizontal space and any elements following it will flow onto a "new line" below the block.
<code>&lt;button class="btn btn-default btn-block"&gt;Submit&lt;/button&gt;</code>
This button would take up 100% of the available width.
<button class='btn btn-default btn-block'>Submit</button>
Note that these buttons still need the <code>btn</code> class.
Add Bootstrap's <code>btn-block</code> class to your Bootstrap button.

  - text: Your button should have the class <code>btn-block</code>.
    testString: assert($("button").hasClass("btn-block"));
  - text: All of your <code>button</code> elements should have closing tags.
    testString: assert(code.match(/<\/button>/g) && code.match(/<button/g) && code.match(/<\/button>/g).length === code.match(/<button/g).length);
