clear sorting button of ngtable is calling form submit

Question

i am using ng-table inside a form.

    <form role="form" name="frmCommand"  class="formValidCommand" novalidate="novalidate" ng-submit="frmCommand.$valid && vm.saveCommandChanges()">

i have a clear sorting button on the table.

                <button ng-click="storeCommandsTableParams.sorting({})" class="btn btn-default pull-right">Clear sorting</button>

clicking this button is calling vm.saveCommandChanges() instead of clearing the sort.

any suggestions please?

Default type attribute value for button tag is submit, so when you click on it it will trigger its parent form's submit event which is captured by ng-submit directive. So try change it to button type so that submit event does not happen.

ie.

<button 
   type="button"
   ng-click="storeCommandsTableParams.sorting({})" 
   class="btn btn-default pull-right">Clear sorting</button>
