change button type from "submit" to "button"

's Computer Specifications

the button is created at runtime

the button is used as "select all checkbox" in gridview by javascript

Dim lc As New Button
lc.Text = "Select All"
lc.Attributes.Add("onclick", "SelectAll('" & GridViewID & "');")
container.Controls.Add(lc)

when the button is clicked, it run javascript "but then submit".

how can i change the button type from "submit" to "button"

so that it can only run the javascript.
