You're talking about input type=image? I haven't met a graphical
browser for many years which didn't support it. If you've got a
genuine image-based submission, then it's fine.
On the other hand, there's some authors who insist on using type=image
instead of type=submit for no other reason than that it looks pretty -
but then they forget about text-mode browsers. It's more polite, in
that kind of situation, to author with type=submit, and use CSS if
wanting to propose some kind of visual presentation. But type=image
does have an "alt" attribute, similar to the <img...> element, to help
things along with text-mode browsers.
