The button is one of the important elements of the Web page and plays a very important role in the Web page. It mainly plays two roles: the first is to play a suggestive role, there is a hint of text or graphics to tell the browser what the effect of clicks, such a button can be a static picture, mainly let the viewer understand what the role of click it, or even just a small more beautiful picture. The second is the role of dynamic response, that is, the browser in different operations, the button can show different effects, response to different mouse time. Such dynamic Web page buttons generally have four states, that is, up (release), Over (sliding), down (pressed) and over while down (slid down), to edit the link or behavior of the button to set the button's active area (active region).
