Buttons

Updated on Sep 8, 2026

The Buttons functionality of the Kendo UI for jQuery Form allows you to alter both the Submit and Clear buttons.

Setting the Buttons Template

The Form allows you to specify a template which will be used for the rendering of the Form buttons.

Example
View Source
    <form id="myForm"></form>

    <script>
        $("#myForm").kendoForm({
            formData: {
                ID: 1,
                Name: "Ivan",
                Address: "Sofia"
            },
            buttonsTemplate: "<button>Submit</button>"
        });
    </script>

Toggling the Clear Button

As of the 2025 Q1 release, the Form enables you to toggle the visibility state of the Clear Button.

Example
View Source
    <form id="myForm"></form>

    <script>
        $("#myForm").kendoForm({
            formData: {
                ID: 1,
                Name: "Ivan",
                Address: "Sofia"
            },
            clearButton: false,
        });
    </script>
