how do I add a save button to a form?

Looking to add a save button to a form, I am sending the user to a Survey and want to embed a Save button at the bottom of the form in case the existing save button in the top right is not obvious enough.

I am using this
<button id="btnFormSaveDone" class="Vibrant Success" onclick="OnClickSave(kFormAndDone)">Save</button>

And the result is
"The text to be displayed here contains an event handler. Event handers are not allowed.
APIs and custom code
Forms
Tables and fields

    I keep getting the error "The text to be displayed here contains an event handler. Event handers are not allowed." Do you know how I could deal with that? Thanks for the help!

    My form text field has "HTML (Limited)" checked and it only allows specific html tags. And I believe that is what is not letting me use variables and formulas. Anyway I can change that?

    You need to make a Rich Text formula field, and not just a form element.  here is the code.  My previous post did did not show the code due to how this formum  operates. 

    "<a id='saveButton' class='Vibrant Success' onclick='DoSave()' href='#'>WhatEverYouWantYourButtonToSay</a>"

      np, just go to Settings for the table
      Fields
      Create new field
      Type will be Formula Rich text.

      That is awesome! I was able to create that and I was testing it out but rather than saving the form it keeps saying the "Data for the field 'SaveButton' is too long". Do you know what I might be messing up?
