Button won't highlight except on text and border

[Keith]

I am seeing something that has stumped everyone here. I have a page
functioning as a wizard, containing multiple panels that get shown/hidden
based on the progress through the wizard. When a particular panel is
displayed, the four buttons in a DIV at the bottom of the page behave oddly.
When pointing at them, they won't highlight unless the border or the text is
pointed to by the cursor. The open space behaves as though it were not part
of the button. I looked at the emitted HTML and found no differences that
seemed meaningful. No stylesheets are being used for the buttons. Any ideas?

TIA
Keith

That is something that is controlled by the browser, not the code. If you
are that concerned about being able to click anywhere on the button, I would
suggest using an ImageButton with, if you want to show the highlighting, a
rollover (you will need to use client-side Javascript for the rollover).

Thanks, Nathan. That's a start for me. I would like to ask: do you have any
idea why it would work as expected when any other panel is visible (and
please recall that the div is not on the panel, but below) but not when the
one seemingly offending panel is visible? Thanks for your insight.
