You are miss understanding the purpose of ColdFusion.

ColdFusion is a server side technology. 90% of the functionality built into ColdFusion is designed to hand what happens on the server between web requests.

For user interface controls, most of us use HTML, JavaScript and a growing number of Flash|Action Script technologies.

There are some ColdFusion tags that DO generate some User Interface elements for you, but the tend to be for more advanced items like grids, calendars, ect.

A simple button, there isn't much reason to re-invent the HTML wheel of the <input type="button"....> tag.  Though there is the <cfinput type="button"...> tag that may give you some more functionality.

I am not actually sure I have ever used a <cfinput type="button"...> tag before.
