On my website, users can post articles and tag them accordingly using some pre-set tags. These tags are in the form of checkboxes. Example below:
<input type="checkbox" name="wpuf_post_tags[]" class="new-post-tags" value="Aliens" /> Aliens
<input type="checkbox" name="wpuf_post_tags[]" class="new-post-tags" value="Ghosts" /> Ghosts
<input type="checkbox" name="wpuf_post_tags[]" class="new-post-tags" value="Monsters" /> Monsters
As you might know, the checkboxes will look something like this:
[ ] Aliens
[o] Ghosts
[ ] Monsters
I would like to do is have the checkbox being one large button with the value inside of it. And then make it have a "toggle" effect.
[ Aliens ] [ Ghosts ] [ Monsters ]
How would I go about doing this?

Note that the last selector may not work in older IE.
