icon as the main button in rails form

Question

My problem is quite simple. I just want the icon to be the button. No borders. I've tried button_to but somehow it produces the icon inside the button. I've also tried link_to and it looks good but then this is gonna be used to submit a form. It's quite simple but somehow I can't get the behavior that i want.

Here are my attempts at this:

= button_tag(type: 'submit') do
  i class="fa fa-arrow-right arrow-enter"

= f.submit "", class: 'fa fa-arrow-right arrow-enter',id: 'user_sign_form_submit'

= link_to "", some_path(), class: 'fa fa-arrow-right arrow-enter'

Thanks in advance!

As you are using Bootstrap, you can use (untested):

= button_tag(type: 'submit', class: 'btn btn-link') do
  i class="fa fa-arrow-right arrow-enter"

More info of the btn-link here and here
