html is markup language. so if you want to control the flow of submit, you need to apply some scripts by adding <script> tag or using event listener. ----try this code below---- this is an example using onclick event listener with not submit type input but button. (submit condition: type 'abc' on password input) <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <form action="https:/www.sololearn.com"> <input type="checkbox"value="password" name="password" >sololearn</input><br /> password: <input type="password" /> <input type="button" value="submit" onclick="if(document.querySelector('[type=\'password\']').value == 'abc') submit();"/> </form> </html>

Ravindra Desai no HTML5 tutorial doesn't teach about event handlers, not in sololearn Html course. Its in the javascript course. You can also check https://www.w3schools.com

You need javascript for that. There is form validation course in the learning section of js.
