Float label is work when the field is required. When i remove required attribute from the input tag it stop working.

margin-top:40px;
}
.btn-add input[type="text"]{
width: 90%;
padding: 10px 20px 0 20px;
border: none;
border-bottom:1px solid #999;
font-size: 140%;
color: #000;
}
.btn-add input:focus ~ .floating-label,
.btn-add input:not(:focus):valid ~ .floating-label{
top: -20px;
bottom: 10px;
left: 10px;
font-size: 20px;
opacity: 1;

}
.btn-add-link input[type="url"]{

font-size: 120%;
}
.form-float{
position: relative;

<input type="text" class="inputText" >
<label class="floating-label">Button text</label> </div>I don't want this field as required field how can i fix it. how can i do that float label work without making input required
The selector input:focus selects the input when it get focus and the selector input:not(:focus):valid selects it if it is valid input but not focused. Since you don't want the input field to be necessarily to be filled, you have to remove:
input:not(:focus):valid~.floating-label
