Jade template engine href tag with button

Question

How can I link a button in a jade pattern? I am trying to create HTML

<a href="create"><button type="button">create new post</button></a>

I tried

a(href="create") button "create new post"

that leads to

<a href="create">button "create new post"</a>

If I change it to

a(href="create")button "create new post"

I get an error

logJs\views\posts\update.jade:7 5| block content 6| h1='creating new post' > 7| a(href="create")button "hello word" 8| form(name="add-post",method="post") 9| div.input 10| span.label title Unexpected token `tag` expected `text`, `code`, `:`, `newline` or `eos`

Answer 1

You just need to use a separate line and the right indent. Jade code

a(href="create")
   button(type="button") create new post

leads to

<a href="create"><button type="button">create new post</button></a>

Answer 2

Another solution:

a(href="create"): button(type="button") create new post

This will work for you too!
