I'm new to Laravel and I'm trying to store a form. I created the view with the House controller but now I want to store the data in the view with the Booking controller. But when I click the button nothing happens.
My question is if it is possible to make a view with one controller and store it with another controller or maybe there is an other solution.
I also want to use the id of the house to store. How do I get that in the other controller as well?

First of all, nothing happens when you click the form submit button because it is currently type="button" and in order this button to play role of submission button it must be type="submit". You can do whatever you want with Laravel. If you want your form to hit another controller method you can simply specify that in your form tag. Like so:
Imagine this is a form inside a view that is rendered by HouseController
<form method="POST" action="{{ url('/save/from/booking/controller') }}">
// ....
</form>
And now on form submission inside a view that is rendered by HouseController, you will actually hit a route that is BookingController responsive for. And here is your route that is being hit by the form
Route::post('/save/from/booking/controller', [BookingController::class, 'store']);
