Button Type

The Button renders a <button type="submit"> element by default, as this is the default behavior of a button. This article explains how to change it, and how to link forms to external submit buttons.

You can control the type attribute through the ButtonType property of the component which can accept the following values:

• Submit - Renders a type="submit" attribute. Can submit the form and trigger validation. The default value.
• Button - Renders a type="button" attribute. Does not invoke form validation and submission.
• Reset - Renders a type="reset" attribute. Can reset the current form.

<TelerikButton>Implicit SUBMIT</TelerikButton>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="@ButtonType.Submit">Explicit SUBMIT</TelerikButton>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="@ButtonType.Button">BUTTON</TelerikButton>
<TelerikButton ButtonType="@ButtonType.Reset">RESET</TelerikButton>

Form Parameter

The Blazor Button has another parameter related to form submission - Form. It allows you to associate a form with a submit button, which is outside the form. Use together with the Id parameter of the Form and set both parameters to the same string value.
