emacs-w3m cann't support the BUTTON element. 

Because w3m doesn't support the BUTTON element. Therefore,
necessary information is not transmitted to emacs. 

...
I think it is good when converting it into the INPUT element if
the BUTTON element is easily supported.

;; ---------------
(setq w3m-use-filter t)

(eval-after-load "w3m-filter"
  '(nconc w3m-filter-rules
	  '((".*" w3m-filter-button2input))))

(defun w3m-filter-button2input (url)
  (w3m-filter-replace-regexp url "<button[\t\n ]" "<input "))

# It might be *too* easy ;-p
