What's the script for replacing the image on a submit button guys ?

[BigDaddy]

What?

[ovigo22]

BigDaddy, so that instead of the gray button for a submit. I get to replace it with an image of my own choosing ...
S/image/button/

[BigDaddy]

I don't know what that has to do with script. You use an input with type="image".
`html input

[ovigo22]

I'd like to replace the image of the default operating system / browser button with a button of my own choosing .... it's still type="submit"
This isn't off topic as far as I'm aware ...

[BigDaddy]

I still don't see what it has to do with script or why type of image is inferior in this case.

[ovigo22]

BigDaddy, because as far as I'm aware type=image isn't a button and doesn't submit the form to the server ...
But thanks for the link :-)
Got it...

[BigDaddy]

It is a submit button.
Read the specs.

[ovigo22]

I just did thanks ... the specs recommend using the <BUTTON> syntax ... <BUTTON name="submit" value="submit" type="submit">
Send<IMG src="/icons/wow.gif" alt="wow"></BUTTON>
I've never seen the type syntax before ...

[BigDaddy]

We don't. In IE, it doesn't function correctly.

[ovigo22]

does any function correctly in IE :P
?
S/any/anything/

[BigDaddy]

The other two forms of submit buttons do.
At least

[ovigo22]

Does it still do the depress image when you click it ?
ok, he can figure that out for himself ... Thanks BigDaddy :-)

[BigDaddy]

No, but you could fake it with onfocus/onblur or :focus/:active

[ovigo22]

that's probably above his skill set ... ? Does the <BUTTON syntax depress the button by any chance ?

[BigDaddy]

Well, :active or onkeydown/up actually
The button element does, yes; but again, it doesn't work right in IE. You could just give a regular input type="submit" button a background and width/height...
`submit # may be of help, too

[ovigo22]

BigDaddy, gosh - the world of browser rendering continues to amaze me in it's complexity ... who would have thought something so easy could be made so difficult ?
I guess we have MS to thank for that ...

[BigDaddy]

In this case, certainly

[ovigo22]

so you're saying that just adding a <INPUT type='submit' background='image.jpg' height='x' width='y' ... should work though ... although not quite in IE ... ?

[BigDaddy]

It will work anywhere as a submit button.

Lusis Backwood JR, helping someone to submit his own button image instead of the normal one ... but keeping the depress image functionality.,
BigDaddy, but it has problems in IE right ?

[Lusis Backwood JR]

On hover-state the problem lays?

[BigDaddy]

No, the button element has problems in IE. The input element with type submit or image do not.
