Can't we just add an <html> element to the <dashboard> instead of converting it to html? And, pardon my ignorance, how does one attach the Javascript to the button? I tried adding a <javascript> element after or inside the <button> without any success.

What is the purpose of this stop/finalize button?

Cheers,
