How can s:button be rendered as an image button

[xtia004]

I have tried several properies of s:button such as type="image", image="...", src="..." so that it can be rendered as an image button but not successful. The reason here not using s:link is that I want a javascript confirmation before actually performing the action in case of delete. By using s:button, the onclick javascript code is inserted proceding to the action script so the goal can be achieved. Thanks in advance.

How about

<s:button ....>
 <h:image ...>
</s:button>

but I am not sure, just a suggestion.

I would just wrap a image with an s:link

Oh, I didn't read your post properly. You'll probably need to put a feature request in JIRA for this.

Can't you just style it with CSS?

<button class="styled"/>

button.styled {
 width: 80px;
 height: 80px;
 border: 0px;
 background: url(image.png) no-repeat top left;
}

Yes, it is a good workaround. It has solved my problem. But you know, it is lack of the pressdown behaviour and if we have more kinds of such buttons, we have to style each of them. What about a request to make s:button be able to render an image button as petemuir suggested?

Fixed in CVS. s:button behaves just like h:commandButton, allowing an image="..." to be specified.

I tried s:button with or without image specification. When image is specified the value attribute is ignored. Is it possible to have both image (on the left) and label?
