/**
 * CFormButtonElement represents a form button element.
 *
 * CFormButtonElement can represent the following types of button based on {@link type} property:
 * <ul>
 * <li>htmlButton: a normal button generated using {@link CHtml::htmlButton}</li>
 * <li>htmlReset a reset button generated using {@link CHtml::htmlButton}</li>
 * <li>htmlSubmit: a submit button generated using {@link CHtml::htmlButton}</li>
 * <li>submit: a submit button generated using {@link CHtml::submitButton}</li>
 * <li>button: a normal button generated using {@link CHtml::button}</li>
 * <li>image: an image button generated using {@link CHtml::imageButton}</li>
 * <li>reset: a reset button generated using {@link CHtml::resetButton}</li>
 * <li>link: a link button generated using {@link CHtml::linkButton}</li>
 * </ul>
 * The {@link type} property can also be a class name or a path alias to the class. In this case,
 * the button is generated using a widget of the specified class. Note, the widget must
 * have a property called "name".
 *
 * Because CFormElement is an ancestor class of CFormButtonElement, a value assigned to a non-existing property will be
 * stored in {@link attributes} which will be passed as HTML attribute values to the {@link CHtml} method
 * generating the button or initial values of the widget properties.
 *
 * @property string $on Scenario names separated by commas. Defaults to null.
