This is an additional kind of button object, over and above that provided for the <INPUT TYPE="Button"> tag.
This object is not the same as a Button object which is a convenience class that is really instantiated as an Input object. Netscape only supports Button (Input) objects and does not support BUTTON objects. MSIE supports both. The properties of each type of button object are different.
