How to replace input[type=submit] to input[type=text] using jQuery?

This way does't work:

$('input[type=submit]').removeAttr('type').attr('type','text');

You can't change that property type (don't know why but that is what firebug logs), so the best thing you can do is to totally remove the input-element and insert a new input with the correct type.

Use jQuery with something like this:

$('input[type=submit]').after("<input type='text' />");
$('input[type=submit]').remove();
