You can do it with javascript:
<BODY onLoad="document.Form1.m.value='Please Push\nThis Button'">
<form name=Form1>
<input type=button name="m" value="" >
</form>
</BODY>
The '\n' in Javascript will cause the line to wrap.
Or, you can do it with ASP code:
<%="<input type=button name=x value=""Please Push" & vbnewline & "This Button"" >"%>
<BODY onLoad="document.Form1.m.value='Please Push\nThis Button'">
<form name=Form1>
<input type=button name="m" value="" >
</form>
</BODY>
The '\n' in Javascript will cause the line to wrap.

<%="<input type=button name=x value=""Please Push" & vbnewline & "This Button"" >"%>
With \n? Does that work? I don't think so.
For modern verions of common browsers ie6/ff2 etc, you may use 

[tt] <input type="button" style="border:none" value="line one
line two" />[/tt]
But that is not something one can take pride of doing due to robustness and compatibility. Check out also this korpela article for other facets.

or I think a carriage return in the button works.
<input type="button" value="line
line two"/>

Thanks mbiro

All the suggestions are good. Didn't mean to draw away from them, but as we got to the forum is based on ASP and this really isn't a place to discuss a client level task. There is a HTML/CSS forum that would be much better for the task.
The essential need for this is to make sure things are clean and easily found by future or present members that have a similar problem to yours. Think of a a relational database as compared to the forums structure. If the management side of things allowed questions to be asked outside the bounds of the topic of the single forums then you would basically go back to a flat representation and cause massive issues with search capabilities, performance and down to earth user experience.
wow, went into that a bit far. I think you get it
