For an image button try [image src=....]

To style the text input field, try adding style="   " to the input field.

If these don't work, let me know. I don't use either feature much, but they
are in the code. Should work...

Cheers,

P.S. There are some strong security protocols built into BoltWire that would
make it difficult to use raw html to create a form--at least one that
accesses the BoltWire forms processing engine. FYI, you can use the embed
function to do other kinds of html insertions.

P.P.S. You don't want a markup that allows raw html insertion or every site
with a comment box would be horribly susceptible to hacking...  ;)
