Buttons
There are several approaches to creating buttons using different tags (<a>
, <button>
, <input>
). Functionalities are different by tag; but by customizing CSS, you can achieve the same style regardless of your tag choices.
1. Buttons with the <a> tag
Using the <a>
tag is the simplest approach to creating a button. This approach can be used when you want to create a button to add a link to another page; however, you cannot use this approach for the button used to submit form data. As the <a>
tag has an end tag, you can insert an icon into the button design.
Syntax
You can use the syntax below. Add a class for the button styling. You can use any class name. "btn
" is often used for the button class name. To open the link in a different tab, you can also add the target="_blank" attribute.
