What is the purpose/function of a button?

What is the purpose of a button?

It does perform my code but it also seems to perform a post back.

Is it possible to have the button change a text field value, submit, and close the form?

Sure, to prevent an automatic postback, please, put the following code in OnClick property of your button:

Code: Select all

event.preventDefaults();

To submit the form by clicking your custom button use the following code:

Code: Select all

fd.save().click();
