    }

}

Looks like there's some parts missing from your code, but that might be because you forgot to blockquote it.

But in case they are not just blockquote issues:

  • you are using JQuery but it's not clear that you have included it
  • there's no closing tag for your button
  • your script operates on elements with the class warning, but there aren't any in the HTML
  • there's no closing tag for your outer DIV (form-card)
  • you defined a validate() function but never use it (but replicate it inside the click handler)
