Angular Reactive Forms and“submit” buttons

I'm building a reactive form with Angular, I have obviously a type "submit" button. I have also other buttons elements . But I don't want these buttons to submit the form. How can I achieve that ? I thought without "type='submit'" attribute on button elements, the form wasn't submitted, but it seems not to be the case.

Thanks

type="button" – AJT82
ok thanks, very easy. So most browsers without "type" attribute on buttons elements add "type=submit" by default, correct ? – AntonBoarf
If your button is inside a form tag, it will by default be of type submit unless you explicitly tell it to be of type button :) – AJT82
Can you share your code – Sunil Kumar

Submit button should be of type submit, and every other button that is not used to submit should be type button.

<button type="submit">This is for Submit</button>
<button type="button">Regular Degular button</button>

Simple way to do this as:

type ="button"
