Is there any way in CCS (2.1) to make a form submit button use an image
type button? I didnt see anything resembling that in the faq/forums.

Sure. Just change the button's html from type="submit" to be type="image"
src="http:/ /urlofimagetoshowonthebutton" (I put a space between the slashes
to keep Outlook from changing it on me, so leave that out).

Ain't that the truth.

Another thought was, maybe you didn't like the ugly starndard gray buttons.
You can easily change the stylesheet to make it look like an image (sort of)
by setting the backcolor and border colors. If you have not browsed the
different themes, take a look at that. Many of them alter the button
elements in this manner. I usually go that route since I don't have to
create a lot images, and it looks pretty good (at least I think so).

Don,

The style sheet based button was actually fine after a little tweaking, but
the client has a thing for "purty buttons"<g>
