7.2.1. Provide a submit button at the end of each form

A submit button should be provided in each form, and placed at the end of the form.

Remarque
In some circumstances, you do not need to provide a button. This is the case, for example, with a drop-down list for sorting a list of results dynamically, as the action is triggered dynamically when the user makes a choice.

Examples

In the first example, the options “Who is travelling” and “How do you want to travel” are placed after the “Book” submit button. Some users may omit to enter this information. For this reason, it is important to position the submit button at the end of the form, as in the second example.
