Custom submit button on bizform
I'd like to change the standard submit button on my bizforms to either be a linkbutton, so that I can include child tags, or to a <button>, so that I can achieve consistent cross-browser styling. Is there any way of doing this through the portal interface?

Alternatively, if I need to customise the ASCX, please can you give me some information on how to do that? I have read 'Modifying the code of standard web parts' in the developer guide, but I'm not sure how to proceed.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated?

Review the source code Kentico renders, you'll find there are classes assigned to many of the elements you need to style. This should get you where you need to be for styling.

RE:Custom submit button on bizform
Thanks for getting back to me.

I'm okay applying styles to the classes, but in order to achieve my design, I need to nest elements within the button - that's why I need to convert it to an <a> or <button>. I can use pseudo-classes to get the same effect, but that will make it incompatible with <IE8.
