Is it possible to create a ""Save and Keep Working"" button from a formula URL field?

I realize the "Save and Keep Working" button was introduced by Quickbase, but I am wanting to add it somewhere in the middle of my form. I've seen posts relating to this kind of thing, but all of them...

Put a Rich Text Formula field in the middle of your form with this definition:

"<div style='Vibrant Success' onclick=$('#footerSaveAndKeepWorkingMenuOption').click();>Save and Keep Working</div>"

When it is clicked it will trigger the clicking of the native Save and Keep Working button (even though it is not visible at the moment). FWIW, this type of strategy of embedding JavaScript into a form which emulates a user clicking on a native features is safer than other methods of more directly invading the native markup and code.
