  Following on from Brian Walters posts (which finally enabled me to work
out how to use graphical submit buttons - thanks Brian!), I did notice
something else though to do with the bit above about not having to use
+-es.

  If I go

[set Cancel_Order]
mv_todo=return
mv_nextpage=canceled
[/set]

<INPUT TYPE="image" SRC="Buttons/Cancel.gif" BORDER="0" NAME="Cancel_Order">
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_click_map VALUE="Cancel_Order">

  it works.  BUT, if I use "Cancel Order" or even "Cancel+Order" it
doesn't (changing all three references to be the same of course).  I
suppose the tip here is to try and avoid spaces and other punctuation when
setting minivend vars like this, but it does have the unfortunate side
effect of having the alternative text come up for the button with the
underscore in it, and not a space (and any other punctuation) that you
might have liked.

  Bug, or have I missed something?

  Regards,
          Lee.
