PHP Submit button not responding (Codeigniter)

Question

I have the following view (home_view.php)

<?php $this->load->helper('url'); 


?>

               <div class="developer-info">

            </div>
         </div>
      </div>
      </form>
   </body>
</html>

And the controller for that (welcome_controller) is the following,

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Welcome_controller extends CI_Controller {

function __construct(){
        parent::__construct();


    }

    public function index()
    {
        if(isset($_POST["btn_login"])){
          $data = array();
            $this->load->model('category_model');
            $data['categories'] = $this->category_model->getCategories();

          $this->load->view('login_view', $data);
        }
        else if(isset($_POST["btn_adminpanel"])){

          $this->load->view('adminpanel_view');
        }
        else if(isset($_POST["btn_logout"])){

          $this->session->sess_destroy();
          $data = array();
            $this->load->model('category_model');
            $data['categories'] = $this->category_model->getCategories();
            $this->load->view('home_view', $data);
        }
        else if(isset($_POST["btn_read"])){

            $this->load->view('readmore_view');

        }

    }


}

Now I need to redirect the page to readmore_view onClick of the button named 'btn_read', But it doesn't respond. (Note : There are 9 buttons with the same name, and I have tested changing one of them and give the particular name in controller, it didn't work either.) Please suggest me a solution.

<input name="btn_read" class="readbtn" value="Read More" /> There is no input type. You have to mention the type of input.

<input type="submit" name="btn_read" class="readbtn" value="Read More" />
