input type="submit" differs from input type="Login"

so this has been blowing my mind for a few hours now and i have no idea what's going on.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <form action="userLogin.php" method="get">
  2.         Username: <input type="text" name="userName" /><br/>
  3.         Password: <input type="password" name="pwd" /><br/>
  4.         <input type="submit" />
  5.     </form>
  6.  
will produce exactly what i want, 2 text fields and a submit button labeled "Submit Query", but when i change the word "submit" to "login"


Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <form action="userLogin.php" method="get">
  2.         Username: <input type="text" name="userName" /><br/>
  3.         Password: <input type="password" name="pwd" /><br/>
  4.         <input type="Login" />
  5.     </form>
  6.

Unless I misunderstand you, Login isn't a valid input type with html. If you just want the button to say login, use
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <input type="submit" value="Login"/>

Nothing, apparently. Moved to HTML/CSS.
