Han,

At this point, we don't yet have documentation describing how you can
provide your own buttons in Form Runner. But in essence, you'll edit
your form (if from Form Builder, in the bar, under Advanced, Edit
Source), and under the <fr:body> (i.e. after the closing tag
</fr:body>), you'll add something along these lines:

<fr:bottom>
   <fr:buttons-bar>
       <fr:buttons>
           <fr:button>
               <xforms:label>My button</xforms:label>
               <xforms:action ev:event="DOMActivate">...</xforms:action>
           </fr:button>
       </fr:buttons>
   </fr:buttons-bar>
</fr:bottom>

This opens to you all the power of XForms, but of course requires you
to know more about XForms.
