Hey! If the button is a child element on the form, it should trigger the submit event. Is the Submit event attached to the form element?

If you try it in test mode, you should see a response from your API immediately after the submit event. If not, it would indicate a potential problem but we'd need to see how the element has been configured to get a better idea. If you continue to have problems, can you share a short video? Alternatively, if your branch is public and you don't mind someone having a look, you can share your branch URL. 👍

I'v gat it. You need to use form to submit, not a button on this form.

Yes, you need a submit event on the form element and the button as a child element of the form will submit it when clicked or enter is pressed. Otherwise, place the button outside of the form e.g. sibling element, use a click event and handle form data manually. 👍

The MDN docs is a good reference for this. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement/submit_event

Thanks! I completely missed that too and had the submit tied to the button and not the form. Appreciate the troubleshooting!
