<stripes:button> Should Generate button Elements Rather Than input 
type="button" Elements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STS-420
                 URL: http://mc4j.org/jira/browse/STS-420
             Project: Stripes
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tag Library
    Affects Versions: Release 1.4.3
            Reporter: Walter Rumsby
         Assigned To: Tim Fennell
            Priority: Minor


The <stripes:button> custom tag generates <input type="button">. I believe it 
should actually generate <button> elements. 

<button> elements are easier to style (older browsers don't support selectors 
like input[type="submit"]). 

<button> supports three types: button - which is like an <input type="button">, 
submit - which is like an <input type="submit"> and reset - which is like an 
<input type="reset">.

We use <button type="submit"> in preference to <input type="submit"> because it 
is easier to style buttons. This means that we can't use <stripes:submit> or 
<stripes:button>, which isn't a massive problem, but it would be nice to be 
able to use <stripes:button type="submit"> and have that generate a <button 
type="submit">, e.g.

<stripes:button type="submit">Ok</stripes:button>

would generate:

<button type="submit">Ok</button>
