Hi Matthias,

if you want to use longer texts as button names, I would like to suggest that you use the HTML "button" element.
This element accepts a seperate description text and form value attribute. I think this would be the best option,
because then the CGI "ACTION" parameter becomes independent of the translation strings.

Here you will find an example:

Best regards,
Leo
