ViewsSubmit Button didn't do anything
Here I'm trying to make a QnA website. So here is the HTML code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Questions</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Questions</h1>
<form action="questions.php" method="post" onsubmit='event.preventDefault() ;sendForm1("ask-question")' name="ask-question">
<h3>Ask a Question</h3>
<!--Adds textarea field to write a question-->
<textarea name="ask-question" rows=5 cols=25 id="your-question">Why do you want to draw art?</textarea><br>
<!--Submit button to send question to email and redirects to result.html without opening an email inbox. The problem is I have no idea how to make it send to my email.-->
<input type=submit value=Ask name=ask>
</form>
<a href="/">Go back home</a>
<br>
<p>No Questions available yet!</p>
<h2>Be the First to ask!</h2>
<h3>Type the question in the text box then click Ask</h3><a href="faq.html">or go to FAQ</a>
</body>
</html>Here i put some meanings about the code and you'll find out most problems but the main problem is I can't get the Submit button to work. Or some it just reloads the website.
Here is the preview of the code.
How can I fix this?

The code isn't working because you are using onsubmit = event.preventDefault() which prevents the default behaviour of form submission. That's why you are not getting redirected to the result.html page. Remove the event.preventDefault() and this should be working
