I think the piece you're missing is that the <input type="button"...>
tag is only valid inside a FORM element according to the HTML standards.

If I remember correctly from the last time I misplaced the element, the
browsers differ on their implementation in this case. Mozilla/Firefox
do the right thing. IE ignores mouse clicks on the button entirely.

I second the removing of the "javascript:". Even if it works, it isn't
needed.
