# --description--
|
|
|
|
Let's add a `submit` button to your form. Clicking this button will send the data from your form to the URL you specified with your form's `action` attribute.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example submit button:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<button type="submit">this button submits the form</button>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# --instructions--
|
|
|
|
Add a button as the last element of your `form` element with a type of `submit`, and `Submit` as its text.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
Your `form` should have a `button` inside it.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert($('form').children('button').length > 0);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your submit button should have the attribute `type` set to `submit`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert($('button').attr('type') === 'submit');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your submit button should only have the text `Submit`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(
|
|
$('button')
|
|
.text()
|
|
.match(/^\s*submit\s*$/gi)
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your `button` element should have a closing tag.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(
|
|
code.match(/<\/button>/g) &&
|
|
code.match(/<button/g) &&
|
|
code.match(/<\/button>/g).length === code.match(/<button/g).length
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
