<p><strong><a href="http://natbat.net/2009/Jun/10/styling-buttons-as-links/">Styling buttons to look like links</a></strong></p> Nat has a neat trick for styling submit buttons to look like regular links—so there’s absolutely no excuse for using a “delete” link when you should be using a POST request. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/buttons">buttons</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/css">css</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/forms">forms</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/getpost">getpost</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/http">http</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/links">links</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/natalie-downe">natalie-downe</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/post">post</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://stopdesign.com/archive/2009/02/04/recreating-the-button.html">Recreating the button</a></strong></p> Fascinating article from Doug Bowman on the work that went in to creating custom CSS buttons for use across Google’s different applications, avoiding images to improve performance ensure they could be easily styled using just CSS. I’d love to see the Google Code team turn this in to a full open source release—the more sites using these buttons the more familiar they will become to users at large. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/buttons">buttons</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/css">css</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/google">google</a></p>
