When your working within a form and want to create a link. Can you have it as just a normal link or does it have to be a button?

If you can have it just as a text link then can anyone give me the basic code.

Thankyou,
Cat x

You can use a normal link within a form. What are you trying to do otherwise?

I have a variable that is effected by a a button in a form. But I want it so that this variable is effected by a normal text link rather than a button. How would you code this?

Thankyou :rolleyes:
