I have a working text button, but would like to make a more realistic button.
Working Button:
client.println("<a href=\"/?center\"\">CENTER</a>");
This is the button I am trying to get working:
client.println("<input type=submit name=center value=\"CENTER\">");
You didn't mention what's not working…
One thing worth fixing: unless you close the input tag, your browser may get cranky. Note carefully the extra / at the end, just before the closing '>':
client.println("<input type=submit name=center value=\"CENTER\"/>");

Thanks! Yea, I guess I should have explained things a bit better. The first code example works great, but i want to replace it with the second code example. The first code is a text (link type) button, and the second code is a real button with text in it. The second piece of code shows up on the web page, but it does nothing. From my understanding it should work, but I am missing something. Since I am replacing one piece of code for another, I made sure to comment out the other. Can anyone please HELP.

Thanks zoomkat, this is exactly what I was looking for, +1 for you!!!
