Link_after / link_before usage

I’m trying to use the shortcode to change the stuff inside the link to a button.

[child-pages link_before=’ <button type=”button”> ‘ link_after=’ </button> ‘ depth=”1″]

But it makes that TEXT instead of HTML. Not sure what the magic trick is?

ideas? I know it is simple.
