html - onclick event not working in JavaScript -

I have a JavaScript code that has an HTML page with a button. I have a function called 'click' (function) which click on the button. The code for the button is as follows:

  & lt; Input type = "button" onClick = "click ()" & gt; Button text & lt; / Input & gt;   
 The problem is that when the button is clicked, the function is not called. What am I doing wrong here? Thank you

 You should write < / P> 
  & lt; Input type = "button" value = "button text" />  
  & lt; Input type = "button" & gt; Instead of button text,   
 & lt; / Input & gt;    
 
 You should rename your function. The function  click ()  is already defined on a button (this limits one click), and gives a higher priority to your preference.   
 Note that here are some suggestions that are simple, and you should not spend too much time on them:  
 
  Onclick = "javascript: myfunc ()" do not use . Use the  Javascript:  prefix inside the  href  attribute of the hyperlink only:  & lt; A href = "javascript: myfunc ()" & gt;   
 You do not have to end with a semicolon  onclick = "foo ()"  and  onclick = "foo ();"  Both work is fine.  
 The incidence of the event attributes in HTML are not sensitive, so  onclick ,  onClick  and  ONCLICK  do all the work in lowercase Typical writing of functions is:  onclick .  Note that Javascript itself is case sensitive, so if you type  document.getElementById ("..."). Onclick = ... , then it should   all lowercase .
