What is the purpose of the Button Tag in a form?

The purpose of the Button Tag in a form is primarily to create a clickable button for user interaction. This button can serve various functions, such as triggering form submission, initiating actions like opening new windows, or executing JavaScript functions when clicked.

While the button can be used to submit the form (which is a common use case), it fundamentally acts as an interactive element that users can engage with. The versatility of the Button Tag allows developers to define its behavior through attributes and event handlers, enhancing the user experience by enabling responsive actions based on user inputs.

The other options describe functionalities that are not related to the core purpose of the Button Tag itself. The Button Tag does not inherently provide static text display or create dropdown lists, as these are managed by different HTML elements designed specifically for those tasks. This reinforces the understanding that the Button Tag is focused on user interaction rather than data presentation or collection in other formats.
