change background color submit buttons.

Hi,

I want to change the background color of 2 types of submit button...code might be the same but don't want to ask twice.

<input name="submit" type="submit" align="absmiddle" style=";text-align:center" onClick="this.form.keywords.value = this.form.search.value; this.form.action = 'http://www.domain.com/searchq.php';" value="health">

and

<button type="submit" name="submit" align="absmiddle">Search in Open Directory <b><?=$displayOnlyInCat?></b> Category</button>

apresto

to be honest as far as my knowledge does, i dont think you can. But could you not make your own buttons and make them submit the form:

<a href="javascript:document.Form1.submit()"><img...></a>
