You have spelt "submit" as "smbit" on your button type and you have an extra line referencing another button that isn't closed correctly "<button> Submit Comment>".

Remove:

<button> Submit Comment>
      <button type="smbit"></button>

and change it to:

<button type="submit"> Submit Comment</button>
