Dont forget the  BUTTON  element wich can handle some more HTML inside

User · Answer

What might be a handy addition to this is the possibility to change the post-url from the extra button so you can post to different urls with different buttons  This can be achieved by setting the form  action  property  Here s the code for that when using jQuery        href button name    click function e        e preventDefault             form name    attr  action    alternateurl php             form name    submit          The action-attribute has some issues with older jQuery versions  but on the latest you ll be good to go
