[webkit-dev] Google Mail Buttons not respecting native look

[Timothy Hatcher]

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>
