hi,

in plain php the onclick action is`<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn order-btn" onclick="contactus();"><strong>Order Now!</strong></button>`

but in pinegrow the code i made it like`< button type="submit" id="submit" onclick="contactus();"> <?php _e( 'Submit', 'numerolight' ); ?> </button>`

but the action is not working the javascript doesn’t run…have i put the code correctly for the button? am i missing somethign here do i need to change something in the corresponding html file too?
