How to put a link on a button with bootstrap?

How would one put a link on a button with bootstrap?

there are 4 methods in the bootstrap documentation:

<a href="#" class="btn btn-info" role="button">Link Button</a>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-info">Button</button>
<input type="button" class="btn btn-info" value="Input Button">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-info" value="Submit Button">

The first one doesn't work for me, no button shows, just the text with the link, have a feeling its the theme im using.

The second one shows the button which is what i want, but whats the code make the button link to another page when clicked?

Cheers

The easiest solution is the first one of your examples:

<a href="#link" class="btn btn-info" role="button">Link Button</a>

The reason it's not working for you is most likely, as you say, a problem in the theme you're using. There is no reason to resort to bloated extra markup or inline Javascript for this.

If you don't really need the button element, just move the classes to a regular link:

<div class="btn-group">
    <a href="/save/1" class="btn btn-primary active">
        <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-floppy-disk" aria-hidden="true"></i> Save
    </a>
    <a href="/cancel/1" class="btn btn-default">Cancel</a>
</div>

Conversely, you can also change a button to appear like a link:

<button type="button" class="btn btn-link">Link</button>
