I see you've got the answer you wanted already, but just for
completeness: the following is a sufficiently(*) valid form in html
<form>
<input type=text name=q>
<input type=submit>
</form>
which will have a textbox, and a submit button with localized text
saying "Submit Query". If you type something into the textbox and hit
the button, a GET request is sent to the same "page" with ?q=something
appended to the url.
You can do the same with POSTed forms:
<form method=post>
<input type=hidden name=cmd value="rm -rf /">
<input type=submit value=Erase?>
</form>
in this case only a button with the text "Erase?" is visible.
I'm not expressing an opinion on whether this is good form <wink> or
not...

(*) the HTML spec says that the action attribute is required, so
theoretically you must include it.
