Is this intended? That's because IE has failed to default to type="submit" for unknown type attribute values. i.e. In current browsers, <button type="add"> and <button type="remove"> is supposed to equivalent to <button type="submit">. But in IE, it's equivalent to <button type="button">. The functionality can still be provided using JavaScript, or alternatively implementing the buttons using conditional comments like this: <!--[if !IE]>--><button type="add">Add (!IE)</button><!--<![endif]--> <!--[if IE]><button type="submit">Add (IE)</button><![endif]--> -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/
