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.

Figured it out final solutionvar text URL = "javascript:void(DoSaveAdd())";var Text Image = "<a id='saveButton' class='Vibrant Success' onclick='DoSaveAdd()' href='#'>Submit</a>";"<b href =" & $URL &">" & $Image & "</b>

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!

This is what I used WhatEverYouWantYourButtonToSay

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>"

  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?
