Q: Differentiate between <input type="button"> and <input type="submit">?

Ans: The <input type="button"> and <input type="submit"> elements are both used to create buttons in HTML forms, but they have some key differences:

  1. <input type="button"> creates a button that can be used to trigger JavaScript events or other actions, but does not submit a form. It can be used to perform actions like opening a modal, triggering an animation, or running some other JavaScript code when clicked.

  2. <input type="submit"> creates a button that is used to submit a form. When clicked, it sends the data entered in the form to the server to be processed. It also triggers the "submit" event on the form.

  3. <input type="submit"> has a default behavior of submitting a form when clicked, while <input type="button"> does not have this default behavior.

  4. <input type="submit"> has the attribute value, that indicates the text that will be displayed on the button, unlike <input type="button">

It's important to note that you could also use <button> element for both cases and customize it with CSS and/or JavaScript, but <input> element is more simple and direct.
