Button

The button element provides a push button widget. Some elements like Legend , Layertree, FeatureInfo, Line/Area Ruler and PrintClient need a button to be displayed/activated if not defined in a frame.

Buttons optionally can be grouped, so that only one button in a group can be active at any given time. This is done by the group paramter. You can define a button that refers to a website or script using the click paramter.
