You need to detect the click from js side, your HTML remaining same. Note: this method is deprecated since v3.5.5 and removed in v4.
$("button").click(function() {
var $btn = $(this);
$btn.button('loading');
// simulating a timeout
setTimeout(function () {
$btn.button('reset');
}, 1000);
});
Also, don't forget to load jQuery and Bootstrap js (based on jQuery) file in your page.
