What is the difference between a split button and a drop-down button?

A split button is more complex than the drop-down button because it acts as two distinct buttons in one. A split button has a default action followed by a divider line and an arrow. When the arrow is clicked it exposes a drop-down list of alternative actions.

How do you create a split button in HTML?

Example Explained. Use any element to open the dropdown menu, e.g. a <button>, <a> or <p> element. Use a container element (like <div>) to create the dropdown menu and add the dropdown links inside it. Wrap a <div> element around the button and the <div> to position the dropdown menu correctly with CSS.

What is the use of split button?

A split button is a hybrid between a button and a menu: it groups related commands together into a dropdown, but also offers one-click access to a default choice that doesn't require opening the menu.
