Hi,
I usually think of hyperlinks as going to new pages and buttons as starting a process. For example, fill out a form and click a button, rather than a hyperlink.
On a page I'm looking at, the styling looks like a button, and the tag is an anchor with a button role. I know that's symantically incorrect. If the anchor becomes a button tag, the style and tag will agree, but clicking it would go to a new page if the underlying code was changed. How should the anchor and the styling be handled if the developer wants this to look like a button and how should it be handled if they want it to look like a link. I'm assuming that if I were the developer, one choice is to let the browser do what it wants to the link.
Thanks.
Jim
