Inserting image buttons

Inserting image buttons

You can use images as button icons. Using an image to perform tasks other than submitting data requires attaching a behavior to the form object.

To create an image button:

  1. In the document, place the insertion point inside the form outline.
  2. Select Insert > Form > Image Field.

    The Image Source dialog box appears.

  3. Select the image for the button in the Select Image Source dialog box and click OK.

    A image field appears in the form.

  4. In the Property inspector, set the image field properties as desired.

    To create a submit button, enter Submit in the Image Field text box in the Property inspector.

    For more information, see Setting image field properties.

  5. To attach a JavaScript behavior to the button, select the image and then select the behavior in the Behaviors panel (Window > Behaviors).

    For more information, Attaching JavaScript behaviors to HTML form objects and Attaching custom scripts to HTML form buttons.
