    <thetext>The spec currently mentions four different types for the &lt;button&gt; element:
&quot;
Keyword	 State	 Brief description
submit	Submit Button	Submits the form.
reset	Reset Button	Resets the form.
button	Button	Does nothing.
menu	Menu	Shows a menu.
&quot;

I&apos;d suggest to add &quot;cancel&quot; and &quot;confirm&quot; because those two are definitely among the ones used most often on a daily basis and otherwise have to be translated into every language by developers on each and every website.</thetext>

&gt; I&apos;d suggest to add &quot;cancel&quot; and &quot;confirm&quot; because those two are definitely
&gt; among the ones used most often on a daily basis and otherwise have to be
&gt; translated into every language by developers on each and every website.

It would be best to propose that in forum such as discuss.webplatform.org or the public-webapps@w3.org mailing list, or the whatwg@whatwg.org mailing list, then re-open this bug if/when there&apos;s new information to add from the outcomes of those discussions.</thetext>
