I'd advise that you just stick with form buttons.  People (like me)
can and do switch JavaScript off.  I switch it off for testing and
forget to switch it back on.  Others just switch it off because they
don't like it.

If I find a site that appears not to work, I don't mess about with
my browser options to try to find the problem - I just go elsewhere.
I suspect that others do the same.
