I use webdings on submits - but I do mainly work on an intranet ;o) so I KNOW everyone has 
the font.

Easier way is apply the a style to the button that has a 'background-image' with the image 
you want (and probably set the width and high of the button too).

That way you still get that nice 'click' effect.
