How to use text hyperlink instead of image

How to use text hyperlink instead of image

In Dreamweaver, after the PayPal eCommerce extension has been installed, I can go to Insert > PayPal > Buy Now button in order to insert a button that will allow customers to purchase an item. Is there a way to insert hyperlinked text instead of the button image? For instance, if I wanted to insert the text "Click here to purchase" or any other text and have it take my user to the same PayPal page as they would by clicking on the "Buy Now" button image, is there a way to do that?

The buy now button is an image form element that submits the buy now form. You could replace:

<input type="image" name="submit" src="http://images.paypal.com/images/x-click-butcc.gif" border="0" alt="Make payments with PayPal, it's fast, free, and secure!" />

with:
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Click here to purchase" />

To create a regular submit button with your text.
