It is not possible to insert a button within an input field using standard HTML. However, you can use CSS or JavaScript to position a button adjacent to the input field in a way that it looks like it is within the input field. Here is some sample code using CSS:

HTML:

<div class="input-wrapper">
  <input type="text" placeholder="Type here...">
  <button>Go</button>
</div>

CSS:

.input-wrapper {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
}

.input-wrapper input {
  padding-right: 40px; /* padding to make room for button */
}

.input-wrapper button {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  right: 0;
  height: 100%;
}

This code positions the button to the right of the input field using absolute positioning. The .input-wrapper class is used to set the relative positioning for the parent div, and the padding on the input field is used to create space for the button. The button is positioned absolutely with top: 0 and right: 0 to align it with the top and right edges of the parent div. The height: 100%; property is used to make the button the full height of the parent div, so it appears as if it is within the input field.
