Semantics for a toggled display

One of our developers is putting together a little widget where a user can activate a link and reveal some descriptive content. He's using a link to change the display attribute of an adjacent div.

Is there a better role than link for this? Button, maybe?

See a mock at http://webaccess.its.uiowa.edu/demos/show-hide.html

Thanks,
