You can add tag in input field.It will check that while submitting it should have some data in it.的标签。它会检查在提交时是否应该包含一些数据。

 <form class="form-search" method="get" action="https://duckduckgo.com/"> <input type="search" name="q" placeholder="Search or type web address" required> <button type="submit">Search</button> </form>
