Changing appearance of <input type="button"> globally

Change appearance of buttons, but not input boxes, checkboxes, etc.

This may be impossible, but I thought I'd ask:
I'm the webmaster for a fairly large site, so I don't have complete control over every page that is authored. Long ago, I created a class that I could apply to buttons that would make them black with white text. My problem arises when someone who does not know this creates a form but doesn't apply the class to their "submit" button, resulting in the default grey.

Does anyone know of a way to globally define a style for <input type="button"> or <input type="submit"> that do not have classes applied to them, without affecting the appearance of the other form elements (<input type="text", "checkbox", "radio", etc.>)

Thanks!

input[type=button], input[type=submit] { ... }

Unfortunately, it does not work at all in IE.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I use this to format my buttons, works great in all the browsers I've used, incuding IE.

input {
font: 8pt Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #029;
margin: 0px;
padding-top: 1px;
padding-left: 0px;
display: inline;
background: #D5D5D4;
}

I guess it would possibly have affect on other things, but in my case, the "form" is simply an "Order" button next to products.
