Put span within f.submit

Question

This may be simpe but cant seem to get it working. I have the following submit button

<%= f.submit \'Send Message\', class: \'btn submit\', id: \'validFor         


        

Answer 1

Use button_tag and put the span within the button in that way

<%= button_tag(type: 'submit', class: "btn submit", id: 'validForm') do %>
 <span class="icon-envelope"></span> Send Message
<% end %>
