The “Form Submit Button Check” evaluates whether all HTML <form> elements include a control (such as a submit button) that allows users to submit their input.
Example outcome
I observed that all the forms have a button to submit the data to the server.
Impact
Visual Impairments: Screen readers rely on proper form controls to detect form functionality. Without a submit button, users may not realize how to complete the interaction.
Motor Impairments: Users relying on keyboard navigation or switch devices can’t submit forms without a clearly defined submit control.
Cognitive Disabilities: Users may become confused if there’s no clear way to proceed. Expecting users to understand that pressing “Enter” submits a form (if it even does) is a cognitive burden.
Mobile: Lack of visible UI elements can make interactions impossible on touch screens.
Fixes
To address missing submit buttons on forms:
Locate the <form> element missing a submit button.
Add a valid submit control (e.g., <button type="submit"></code> or <input type="submit" value="Send">).
