Hello Everyone, I am wondering if using buttons or navigational elements that look like buttons(for e.g BACK link) are intuitive?
Let me give you guys some context here: I am working on designing a knowledge base interface where a user can look for articles and click on a particular link to read that article. In the article page on the top I had a "BACk" link that would take the user to previous page/results page. Based on some feedback I changed the "BACK" to look like a button. I am not sure if buttons should only be used to submit data and not for navigation? I personally think with it doesn't matter as long as the link/button does what a user expects it to do. I would really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks, GN ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
