can someone tell me why this code take me to sololearn site instead of w3schools when I click the button?

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <form onsubmit="return validate()" method="post"> Number: <input type="text" name="num1" id="num1" /><br /> Repeat: <input type="text" name="num2" id="num2" /><br /> <a href="https://www.w3schools.com"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </a> </form> <script> function validate() { var n1 = document.getElementById('num1'); var n2 = document.getElementById('num2'); if(n1.value !== '' && n2.value !== '') { if(n1.value == n2.value) { return true; } } // alert("The values should be equal and not blank"); return false; } </script> </body> </html>

html javascript return function link var

Takes you to sololearn because you don’t have an action in your form. The href you have has absolutely nothing to do with the form. It’s just a link between your inputs and submit button. For the form to send to w3schools, you need: <form onsubmit="return validate()" method="post" action=“https://www.w3schools.com”>

Also, when a form doesn’t have the action included, it’s automatically submitted to itself, aka the url it’s at. That’s why if the form is at sololearn, it’ll be submitted to sololearn.
