button tag

Is it possible for a button tag outside a form to trigger an action? Something like this and still have the GUI as a button? Having to have a form for just an action off a button seems excessive. And sometimes I'd like a real button instead of a link.

<button type="button">Click Me!</button>

You could just use a regular pagelink, actionlink or event link and
style it (with CSS) to look like a button.

If you really want to use a <button> element, you can. But you'll have
to decide out how to get the Tapestry-generated URL to the browser,
with a JavaScript click event handler. Maybe get the link from
ComponentResources#createEventLink, add it as an HTML5 "data"
attribute to the button element, using JavaScript to pull out the data
value when clicked.

<input> elements are used within a <form> element to declare input controls
that allow users to input data.

I envisage something like this:

<button type="button" onclick="do:page.onActionEvent" t:context=".../>
