====== 7.3.4. Provide a confirmation message ======

Whenever a form is validated with success, a confirmation message must be provided. This message must remind the user of the action that has been executed. 

<note>
**Note**\\
In some circumstances, a confirmation message is not necessary, as the page displayed after submitting the form makes the result of the action obvious. For example: 
  * A connection form that sends the user to a “User profile” page.
  * A “Go to next step” button that sends the user to the next step in a form with multiple steps. 
  * A comment form that sends the user to the comment posted.
  * Etc.
