good, i think it's probably the best approach...

i think that depends on your audience...

for instance, in some browsers, that might render, but have no real 
context... in Lynx, for instance, it would appear as a submit button, 
potentially confusing the user... some versions of NN might display 
it as a broken image icon...

i see what it's trying to do, but i don't think adding another 
redundant, and supposedly hidden, submit button is a terribly good 
approach...
