Couldn't you just add a href tag to the button element?

Pretty sure it shouldn't be done like Ryan suggested as it's a form sending nothing to another page.
Same applies for the anchor around a button as its seen as very bad practice.

If you're using a framework like Bootstrap, there's really simple ways to make this happen by using:

Code

<a class="btn" href="link.html">Link</a>

If you're not using any frameworks, then you could just make your own styles for the element.

This. A form is not necessary. All you need is an anchor tag and some CSS to make it a button. If you're not using Bootstrap, it wouldn't be hard to wrap an anchor tag around the button.

Forms shouldn't be used for sending a user to another page for just a redirect. You only need a form if you're sending data through. Use an anchor tag like what the others have quoted above.

<a class="btn" href="link.html">Link</a>

Not having a go at all lol, it's Xmas. Peace & love ✌

I think it's just better to say something so OP can know right okay, this works but its not really supposed to be done like this.

Happy Holidays 🤗

They're offering you 2 ways to do it.
Best option:

Code

<a class="className" href="mylink.html">My Link</a>

and in the CSS...

Code

.className{
padding:10px;
color:white;
background-color:black;
text-align:center;
margin:20px;
}
