You don't need client-side scripting for this.  Here is a very simple
example using CSS:

  http://bsb.me.uk/testing/button.html

and another where you can see it in action with a submit button:

  http://bsb.me.uk/testing/button.php

The idea is that you style the label of a checkbox.  I've chosen to hide
the checkbox, but you don't have to do that.

You can view the PHP source at http://bsb.me.uk/testing/button-php.txt
