Could you explain what exactly you mean by "Django accepts and works with form button in format"? As far as I know the difference in the behaviour of <input type="submit" .../> and <button type="button">... has nothing to do with Django. Django does not care how a form is submitted from the browser.

This previously posted question might be of interest.

When both above examples are places in app, only first one is functional (updates database), second one is not click able, and not functional. – bobsr Aug 14 '10 at 14:04

Add the following to the button to submit the form: ("myform" is the id of your form)

onClick="javascript.document.myform.submit();"
