Try

  <applet code="button.class" height="60" width="240">
    <param name="button" value="Yea or nay?">
    <b>Sorry, you need Java to press this button.</b>
  </applet>

I had some buttons like that back in the day, with animations, sound effects and all, geocities-esque. The computer almost grinded to a halt loading it, but pre-teen me felt it was worth it.

Mine had the lake applet. It was gorgeous.
