One doesn't. However, one might set the alt attribute of the <button>. "Buttons created with the BUTTON element function just like buttons created with the INPUT element, but they offer richer rendering possibilities: the BUTTON element may have content. For example, a BUTTON element that contains an image functions like and may resemble an INPUT element whose type is set to "image", but the BUTTON element type allows content. ... Recall that authors must provide alternate text for an IMG element." http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.5 - Ben ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
