Michael,
Sure. Basically I want to do the same thing you are apparently questing for:
the ability to replace standard browser buttons with images. I have an application
that I want to retrofit to this, and I have used LookupDispatchAction and other
approaches in it. I have a wizard (workflow) type of process in it that requires,
next, previous, finish buttons in it. Cancel buttons are on all of the forms. And,
I have a file upload page, that was my purpose in launching this thread. I've
been reading what you've proposed for image buttons, along with what others
say in general.
I use DynaValidatorForm in most places. One thing I find a little odd is the
usage of <html:cancel>. There are several forms in my application where
I don't want to validate if a certain button is pressed but it does not mean
cancel. I still need to take some action. For example, in the wizard form
set I spoke of previously, say you are on page 2 of the 5 page set. There
are three buttons on the form: Previous, Next, and Cancel. If the user
hits next, I want to validate. If the user hits cancel, I don't want to validate
so I hit the cancel method. The wierd case is when the user hits Previous.
The way I have it right now, it validates the current page before going back
one page. I'd really like it to go the previous page without validating the
current page. I am reading the source code for Action, DispatchAction,
and LookupDispatchAction to determine how best to do this.
Anyway, back to your request for teaming up. I'll do what I can. Can you share what you've discovered so far?

Hi, Dean,
I am a pretty meat and potatoes kind of genius. I need to solve one thing at a time. So, right now I am going to stick with only the image deal with file uploads. I have the following which works okay with IE but not with Mozilla.
<form method='get' action='display_none.jsp'> <input type=file name='file1' size='15' class='walter' style='display: none;'> <br>
<input type='text' name='file2' id='file2'>
<img src='up.gif' name='brower' id='brower' width='83' height='24' border='0' alt='' align='absmiddle' onclick='document.all.file1.click(); document.all.file2.value=document.all.file1.value' onMouseDown='this.src="down.gif"' onMouseUp='this.src="up.gif"' onMouseOut='this.src="up.gif"'> </form>
