To solve the javascript issue the styled form controls needed to be dynamically inserted into the page using a javascript. No javascript, no change. Original experiments with innerHTML and regExp failed miserably and proved inelegant. However I am still using innerHTML to produce the styled buttons in Internet Explorer.
To solve the CSS problem the styled form controls needed to be invisible with CSS disabled, and likewise the unstyled controls needed to be visible. This was achieved by hiding the unstyled controls with CSS and using a plain Anchor with background images to act as the new control.
To solve the accessibility issues the Anchor comes into play once more. Because it is an Anchor it can be tabbed into and manipulated with keyboard commands and/or clicked.
