Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

Sorry - that was confusing.

I was agreeing with Jeff that <input type="image"> should be
used instead of <img onClick="submitIt(this)"> or somesuch, and
providing supporting evidence.

Cheers
Martin

I don't understand this.... how does this statement justify not using the
image type of the input tag?
