<input type="button" value="Link Text"

Or if you prefer something that looks more like a link, use any other element
with an onclick handler, like<br>
<br>
<span class="someSuchFormattingClass"
onclick="theFunction()">Link Text</span><br>

Of course you could start with a button and format that as well; really, it's

<br>
The only time Javascript "breaks" your search
engine viability is when it replaces your content and/or links. Search
engines work by following links, indexing the content on each page, and then
following the links on each page. If your links are replaced by
Javascript calls, the search engine won't know what to do.<br>
Since you're just using JS to manipulate numbers within the
same page, I can't see this being a problem. Just make sure that all
relevant areas of your site are still linked by traditional means and you
should be fine.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Peter<br>
