I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
Include any files or environmental changes,
Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.
Expected Behavior
Buttons should not be assigned duplicate ids.
Actual Behavior
With the Notes feature enabled, when a chat window has text in it, there are two buttons that appear, the send button, and the "make note button", which both are assigned the id send-message-button.
per html rules, item ids must be unique.
This is affecting playwright scripts that I have, which try to press this button, but fail since multiple results are found.
Open developer console, and execute the command console.log(document.querySelectorAll("#send-message-button"));
The result should contain a single element, but it contains 2.
Logs & Screenshots
Notes feature must be enabled:

per html rules, item ids must be unique.
This is affecting playwright scripts that I have, which try to press this button, but fail since multiple results are found.
I believe the error was introduced here: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/commit/00c2b6ca405d617e3d7520953a00a36c19c790ec#diff-021535124ecf569d90d74afd5d4af2baefa24bd540b65a3df9b02248ab067559R1794 possibly a copy-paste issue.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Install Open-webui per normal instructions
2. Enable the Notes feature
3. Start a new chat
4. Type anything into the chat text box
5. Open developer console, and execute the command `console.log(document.querySelectorAll("#send-message-button"));`
6. The result should contain a single element, but it contains 2.

This issue has likely been resolved already, as I am unable to reproduce the reported issue on my end using the latest dev branch version of Open WebUI across Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

And to even see a length of 1 here, I must have something typed within the chat input field of the chat.
Update: I've reproduced the reported issue.

Hm... I still see the dual ids in the dev copy of that file. Perhaps it's not as simple as using the vanilla installation.
I too, did not see any elements if I didn't type anything in the chat. But that is to be expected, the buttons don't show up until you do. Do you see both these buttons?

OK, I found you have to enable the Notes feature. Editing the reproduction steps.

Aha! So I actually am able to reproduce the reported issue if I simply start a new chat and type something within the chat's input field. I am not able to reproduce it in existing chats because the Create Note button does not appear then. Yes, I do have the Notes (Beta) featured enabled within the admin settings.
