Are you sure that you've declared the form with the <form> tag? Also, try to change the tag of the submit button from <div> to <button> or <input>. Makes more sense semantically.

The problem is that you've tried to use double-quote characters for your element attributes and for the string literal in your JS. So your onclick attribute is read as onclick="document.getElementById(" with the form").submit();" part left over.

Change the inner double-quote characters to single-quote characters and it will work (assuming you have a form with id="form"):

onclick="document.getElementById('form').submit();"
