How about an image instead?

<input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;submit.gif&quot;>

This works as a submit button. Dean Owen

You can use an actual anchor like this:

<a href=&quot;#&quot; onClick=&quot;document.formName.submit();&quot;>Click here to submit</a>

Or, I like to use a span, and then just format the text like:

<span onClick=&quot;document.formName.submit();&quot; style=&quot;cursor: hand&quot;><font color=blue><u>Click here to submit</u></font></span>

Only difference, really is the lack of a *click* when they click on the span, but it looks the same -- oh, and it won't change colors when they come back to the page.

With this method can you pass a value depending on which link is clicked?


The form is <form name=&quot;orderForm&quot; action=&quot;

method=&quot;post&quot;>

The submit button I have at the moment is: <input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Hardware&quot; name=&quot;Category&quot;>

Is it possible to have a
<a href=&quot;#&quot; onClick=&quot;document.formName.submit();&quot;>Click here to submit</a>

That will submit the same as the above Submit button?
