I put together a box that expands to accommodate larger text in

Original:

(see the box to the right)
First problematic translation:
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-css-charset.fr.php#endlinks
I want the text "Send us a comment" to look like a link, but trigger
a POST, so I put the text in a submit button and styled it.
Unfortunately the longer translations won't wrap that way.
Richard,
Another method is to create a transparent button image and place it
on top of the text (i.e. in a layer between the text and the viewer),
something like this:
<form action="script.php" method="post">
<div>
<p>Envoyez-nous un commentaire</p>
<input type="image" src="transparent-button.png"
name="sendcomment" />
</div>
</form>
/* make all three elements the same size & resizable */
div,
div p,
div input
{
font-size: 1em;
width: 10em;
height: 3em;
}
/* the div constrains the text & button */
div
{
position: relative;
}
/* superimpose the text & button within the div */
div p,
div input
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
margin: 0;
}
