<p>An electrostatic capacitive coupling-type touch panel is provided which interacts not only with a finger-based input but also with a touch using non-conductive input means. The touch panel includes coordinate detection electrodes (XP1 - XP4, YP1 - YP4) for detecting XY position coordinates and transparent Z electrodes. The Z electrodes are arranged over the coordinate detection electrodes (XP1 - XP4, YP1 - YP4) at certain intervals with spacers (4) disposed therebetween. An elastic layer (5) that is deformed along the shape of the spacers (4) by compressive force resulting from touch pressing presses the Z electrodes.
