As you seem to be misusing it as a link I'm guessing that you don't have
a <form> around it, form elements are required to be in a form, and some
browsers do not render them if they are not.

If you want a link that looks like a button why not use a link? You can use
CSS to make it look like a button if you like, and then it will also work
in browsers that do not support (or have disabled) JavaScript.
