This is a nice but not new effect in CSS. The main thing to notice in the code is that the output looks like a button but it is written in <a> tag. Using CSS I have provided a background block and color and webkit transition is used to create this type of effect.
on image.

#CODE#

<html>
<head>
<title> css button compress-release</title>
<style text="text/css">
a.hupt:link {
color: #6E6E6E;
font: bold 12px Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 7px 12px;
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
text-shadow: 0 1px 0 white;
-webkit-transition: border-color .218s;
-moz-transition: border .218s;
-o-transition: border-color .218s;
transition: border-color .218s;
background: #F3F3F3;
background: -webkit-gradient(linear,0% 40%,0% 70%,from(whiteSmoke),to(#F1F1F1));
background: -moz-linear-gradient(linear,0% 40%,0% 70%,from(whiteSmoke),to(#F1F1F1));
border: solid 1px gainsboro;
