Cannot click button of type "submit"

Steps to reproduce

Ubuntu 18.04 Puppeteer 2.0.0

• Puppeteer version: 2.0.0
• Platform / OS version: Ubuntu 18.04
• URLs (if applicable):
• Node.js version: 10.15.3

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I tried these combinations of code I gathered from this repo’s issues/stackoverflow/other various forums to “click” a button of type submit:

await page.$eval('button[type="submit"]', elem => elem.click());

    await page.click('button[submit]');
    await page.click('button[type=submit]', {waitUntil: 'domcontentloaded'});
    await page.evaluate((selector) => document.querySelector(selector).click(), process.hcPlatform.selectors.signup.submit); 
    await page.evaluate((selector) => document.querySelector(selector).click(), 'button.sc-gisBJw gVJias btn btn-default'); 

    await page.evaluate(() => document.querySelector('button[type="submit"]').scrollIntoView());
    await page.click('button[type="submit"]');

    await page.waitFor('button[type="submit"]');
    await page.$eval('button[type="submit"]', elem => elem.click());
    await page.click('button[type="submit"]', {waitUntil: 'domcontentloaded'});

    await page.waitFor(3000);
    await page.click('button[text="Sign Up"]')

    await page.focus('button[type="submit"]' )
    await page.keyboard.type('\n');

    await page.$$eval('button[type="submit"]', button => {
        button.click();
    });

What is the expected result?

Submit the form

What happens instead?

Either the checkbox above the submit button is DESELECTED and the submit button is ignored, or the submit button is simply ignored, or “no node is found”.

Got the same problem. Just in my case, I’ve also tried to use this code:

const loginButton = await page.$('button[type="submit"]');
if (loginButton) {
      await Promise.all([page.waitForNavigation(), loginButton.click()]);
}

We are closing this issue. If the issue still persists in the latest version of Puppeteer, please reopen the issue and update the description. We will try our best to accomodate it!
