Comment:
Quote: &quot;The value  attribute must not be present unless the form attribute is present.&quot; This doesn&apos;t make sense, since the button can also belong to a form by being put between the form element tags. It should read: &quot;The value  attribute must not be present unless the button belongs to a form.&quot;
