How to add a button inside a input field

Question

I have created a input field and a button but i want to put that button insiade that input field. I have done it by using position:absolute but the problem is its not working properly in medium or large screen. Any kind of help would be highly appreciated. Here is my code

HTML CODE

      <div>
          <div style="float: left;width: 82%">
                <input type="text" class="sent-message-text">

                <img src="../img/camera.png" class="post-image-uploaad">

          </div>
          <div style="float: right">
            <button class="no-button-design"><img src="../img/msg-sent.png" class="post-image-uploaad" style="margin-right: 15px;"></button>
          </div>
      </div>
</div>

CSS CODE

.fixed-bottom2 {
box-shadow: inset 0px 4px 5px #ededed;
padding: 9px;
    margin:-20px !important
}
.sent-message-text {
border: 1px solid;
margin: 10px 0px 10px 15px;
min-height: 36px;
border: 1px solid #1486ab66 !important;
border-radius: 4px;
    width: 92%;
}

.post-image-uploaad {
    width: auto;
height: 22px;
margin-top: 8px;

}

.no-button-design {
    padding: 0px;
border: 0px;
background-color: transparent;
margin: 0px;

}

.no-button-design img {
    height: 34px;
}

In small screen its perfectly fine

But in large screen it's coming out from the input field
