Text as a form submitter?

[liunx]

Is it possible to use a text link to submit a form? Like, you click on a link called "Search", and it will submit all the data from a box within that variable called "query". Just wondering if this was possible, as it would make my life so much easier with a job I am currently working on <br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

<br />
just that you have a link instead of a button.<!--content-->Thanks everyone <br />

The reason I want a text link is because I don't want an ugly button! thinking about it though, I could just use an image of the text as a submit button ;-)<br />
