Question is taken from Input Types for Forms topic in portion HTML Markup, Forms, Video, Audio & Other Multimedia of HTML

Answer 1

Correct option is (b) Set an image as submit button

To explain: the image input type set an image as submit button. The syntax is <input type=”image” src=”imghj.gif” alt=”Submit”> this sets the image provided by url as the submit button. Input type image sends the X and Y coordinates of click and hence the image is activated by clicking the submit button.
