I want to use a graphic instead of an Select Button

The Mighty Dubs · 2006-10-27 11:16:25

Hi, Im sure this is simple enough to do but Im stuck. I have to images called reset.jpg & submit.jpg. I want to use these in the place of normal form reset & submit buttons. What is the proper coding for this...anybody?

the problem is you cannot have a submit and reset button on the same page using images, unless you use some javascript.

any type=image buttons will submit the form, and if the OP wants a reset button, well that simply cannot be done using that method

As Ph3n0m said, use CSS. You would be surprised what a border, background color and smaller font will do for your button.
