Walter Rumsby commented on STS-420:
-----------------------------------
Actually, there are some issues with the <button> element in Internet Explorer
6 that might mean that changing what is generated by the <stripes:*> tags isn't
an attractive option -

Looking back at this issue, if I now wanted to solve the problem I initially
described I'd probably rely on a JavaScript framework, e.g. YUI 2's Button
Utility - http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/button/
> <stripes:button> Should Generate button Elements Rather Than input
> type="button" Elements

> Key: STS-420
> URL: http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-420
> Project: Stripes
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tag Library
> Affects Versions: Release 1.4.3
> Reporter: Walter Rumsby
> 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>
