Lets be honest, most of the form buttons that you come across are ugly, they work as intended, but really, really look awful. There are reasons for this, firstly form buttons, as with almost anything to do with forms, are notoriously tricky to style with consistency, and secondly, styling can cause major problems with cross browser and cross platform compatibility.

For richer and prettier buttons the obvious choice is the button element, which offers richer labels, including images and emphasis. It is this element this article focuses on.
