Text instead of button in a form?	Can't Post

I would like to use text instead of the usual submit button in a form, is this possible and if so could someone please help?

I am using the following code

<form method=post action="view.cgi">
<input type=hidden name ="in" value ="$ArtID">
<input type=submit Value="Details"></form>

The text will just say "details"

Thanks

Without using Javascript (which your web site visitors can turn on and off at will -- not recommended), there isn't a way to submit a form with plain text.

You can use an image instead (with your text) by using:

<INPUT TYPE=IMAGE SRC="http://www.yourdomain.com/details.gif" BORDER=0>
