Submit button doesn't work

Question

I have a form with <input type="submit". In chrome submit doesn't do anything. On a "network" in tab in developer tools I see nothing. No errors in developer tools either. Meanwhile, if I do save a page and open a saved page, then after I press submit button, I see something appears in "network" tab. This happens in chrome and firefox. This works as expected in IE.

Does anybody have a hindsight, what should I look at?

EDIT: I don't need a direct answer, I only need to know, where should I look at. If someone posts a direction and that'll help me to solve my problem, I'll accept it as a correct answer.

EDIT2: Structure of a page looks like this:

html     head     body         div         div             form             form             form             form             form                 input                 input                 table                 table                     tbody                         tr..td..input type=submit 

EDIT3: We found the actual problem, it was that in a page was a link, containing href="#" and after clicking on that link submit stopped to work, because # was added to the end of URL and because action of the form was empty so it picked up URI from current URI, which contained # at the, so instead of submitting, browser did jump on a current page.

Answer 1

If you are not using any JavaScript for form validation then a simple layout for your form would look like this:

<form action="formHandler.php" method="post">      <input name="fname" id="fname" type="text" value="example" />      <input type="submit" value="submit" /> </form> 

You need to ensure you have the submit button within the form element and an appropriate action attribute on the form element is present.

For a more direct answer, provide the code you are working with.

Answer 2

Are you using HTML5? If so, check whether you have any <input type="hidden"> in your form with the property required. Remove that required property. Internet Explorer won't take this property, so it works but Chrome will.
