Yeah, it's obscure for sure.
<!ELEMENT BUTTON

(%flow; <http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/sgml/dtd.html#flow>)*

Using Toolman's excellent 2005 article "The Art of Reading a DTD"
http://www.autisticcuckoo.net/archive.php?id=2005/05/01/art-of-reading-dtd
I think the above can be decyphered as:
<!ELEMENT BUTTON - -
(%flow;)* -(A|%formctrl;|FORM|FIELDSET)
-- push button -->
opening and closing tags are required, it can contain any number of
flow elements (block or inline), but can't CONTAIN links, other form
controls, forms or fieldsets.

Thanks Patrick, that's a really useful link.
So I guess it's just up to John whether to use javascript or regular
links now.
