# Submit A Form With A Button Outside The Form
|
||||
|
||||
You can tie a submit button to a form that the button doesn't live inside
|
||||
of. The trick is to give the form an `id` and then reference that `id` with
|
||||
the button's `form` property.
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<form id="my-form">
|
||||
<label for="name">Name:</label>
|
||||
<input type="text" name="name"></input>
|
||||
</form>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ... -->
|
||||
|
||||
<button type="submit" form="my-form">Submit</button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
With this setup, clicking the _Submit_ button will cause the form to be
|
||||
submitted.
|
||||
|
||||
See the [MDN Button
|
||||
docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/button) for
|
||||
more details.
