GMail is using the HTML 4 <button> tag. Safari 2.0 renders these with a generic look. WebKit TOT/nightly renders them with a native look unless the site styles them with CSS.

<BUTTON type="button" class="ab" id="ac_rc_^i" style="font-weight:bold">Archive</BUTTON>

Hi,

I was about to file a bug regarding the way the "Archive", "Delete" and "Report Spam" buttons
are rendered in the GMail pages by Safari. Then I decided I had better try a small test case
with a page that contained:

  <form>
    <input form="submit">
    <input form="button">
  </form>

and found the buttons rendered fine. Can anyone work out whether this is a 'bug' or something
particular that Gmail is doing?

I tried using the DOM inspector in Firefox (it is a bit more advanced that Safari's) to see
if I could notice anything in particular, but I am not seeing it.
