You can emulate a submit button doing something like this:<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="docment.forms[0].submit();" />

You can use anything as a 'submit' button......... a hyperlink, image, whatever you want.

If you wanted a button, eg. saying 'send form' instead of submit,

<form name="">
<input type="button" value="send form" onclick="form.submit">
</form>

<form name="">The name attribute is deprecated for the <form> element under all XHTML DOCTYPEs. It's usually safer to access forms using array notation through the DOM.Originally posted by clairec666
<input type="button" value="send form" onclick="form.submit">That syntax is incorrect. If inside the form, you could simply do:<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="submit();" />Else, if not inside of the form, you could use the method I previously described. Also, just to note, you should be closing all tags if using an XHTML DOCTYPE.
