    We handed out printed versions of our form and now want our secretary to key them in. When you submit a form, it doesn't allow for submitting another with out pasting the link in the browser address window. 

    Is there a way to add a button for submitting another form?

    Thanks.

    Yes there is a way, I assume that you would like it on this form: https://www.jotform.com/92384375780164

    My suggestion would be to put a hyperlink, that should look like a button, in the Thank You page.

    Please try this workaround:

    1) Copy the URL of your form: https://www.jotform.com/help/401-Where-to-Find-My-Form-URL

    2) Put the URL of the form in this code:

    <a class="button" target="_blank" href="FORM URL HERE" rel="nofollow noopener">New Submission</a>

    3) Copy the whole code, and go to the Thank You page, then:

    1- Click on the source code icon.

    2- Paste the code at the end.

    3- Click on the OK button to save the change.

    3) Add the following CSS code in your form to make the hyperlink look like a button: https://www.jotform.com/help/117-How-to-Inject-Custom-CSS-Codes

    .button {

    background-color: #414040;

    padding: 8px 25px; 

    border: none; 

    border-radius: 8px; 

    cursor: pointer; 

    font-size: 16px; 

    color: #fcfcfc;

    text-decoration: none;

    }
