HTML Form with graphic button

[Otto]

Hello to all

I'm not a guru with html, but I don't understand why my
form do not work with a graphic button ?!

This work:
<input type='submit' name=mode value='Enregistrer'>

But not this:
<input type='image' src='images/co_avant.png' name=mode
value='Enregistrer'>

the "mode" will not be set with the value "Enregistrer".

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Where is your alt attribute?

the "mode" will not be set with the value "Enregistrer".

No, images send the coordinates clicked (as fieldname.x and fieldname.y),
not the value.

This is described in the manual:

It is necessary to have this attribute?

Try accessing your page in a text browser like lynx.
