Making an image act like a button

Question

I'm working on a simple HTML page where I have this image that I want to act as a button.

Here is the code for my image:

<div style="position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 40px;"> 
    <img src="logg.png" width="114" height="38">
</div>

And basically I want to add this functionality into it:

<div>
    <input id="saveForm" name="saveForm" class="btTxt submit" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</div>

The text on the button itself that says Submit is not needed as my image has the text it needs.

So anyway, is this possible? and if so, How? :)

Answer 1

You could implement a JavaScript block which contains a function with your needs.

<div style="position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 40px;"> 
    <img src="logg.png" width="114" height="38" onclick="DoSomething();" />
</div>

Answer 2

You could use an image submit button:

<input type="image"  id="saveform" src="logg.png " alt="Submit Form" />

Answer 3

Here is how I got this to work:

First the css:

    /* resets the button styling */
    button {
      all: unset;
      cursor: pointer;
    }

Then, the html:

<button onclick="submit()">
  <img src="mycoolimage.png" />
</button>

This is cleaner IMO than the input submit approach and allows for ajax without the weird override default submit behavior.
