Re: [PHP] An HTML alternative to submit button to look like anchor??

If you do this, make sure you name your submit button Submit or 
something else, but not submit :)

Just make a link (anchor) as you normally would and make the value of its

name of the form you wish to submit. As with a lot of client-side scripting
languages, I cannot guarantee that this solution is cross-browser
compatible.

I'm wondering if there is such a thing as an alternative to the HTML
submit button that would instead look like an anchor and yet act like a
submit with POST action.  Just wondering...

You can do it with an image.

 Hi!

 I'm wondering if there is such a thing as an alternative to the HTML
 submit button that would instead look like an anchor and yet act like a
 submit with POST action.  Just wondering...

Instead of javascript and image magic, I would style the button to look 
like regular text:

input style=border-size: 0px; border-style: none; background: inherit; 
font: inherit; cursor: hand; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px; type=submit
