Buttons in front end not showing their text?
I have an issue where none of the buttons in the system are showing their text.
For example the word Go on the search button ismissing.
 
Any help on this would be great.
 
Thanks

Check the HTML source for the page and post the src attribute for the img. My guess is that the text color might be the same as the background.

Re: Buttons in front end not showing their text?
I will try and not be insulted by that reply... The buttons are currently the green gradient colour, and the text is White, this is just the orange theme default. I haven't started editing the themes yet. The GO button sometimes shows and other times doesn't. But none of the others show at all. It's like a resource from which these buttons are populated it missing or empty? Any constructive help would be great. Thanks

You can see the error here, on one of my staging environments. URL: http://tropico.avatry.com/ This happens in all the following browsers' so it's not any CSS issue. -FF -IE -Chrome -Opera -safari (pc) -safari (iPad) Thanks again, I don't mean to sound rude in the last post ;)

Try to delete all the images from Web\Images\<your site name>\Dynamic and Ctrl-F5 your browser. If that doesn't work I guess it's something wrong with your DyImageHttpHandler.cs. Try to debug it.

Thanks, I'll give thus a go. I can't debug it, as it's just an install on the server, I haven't got the source locally. I am simply looking at the product to see if it's viable for what I need. Again thanks your help, i'll keep you posted on any issues.

What did you see the images from Web\Images\<your site name>\Dynamic? Did they get regenerated? Are they still the bad images?

Sorry for the delayed reply,
 
That exact directory didnt exist, but I did find a folder called dynamic under the images the directory, I deleted the contents of this. This did nothing lol.
 
I may try a clean installtion and see where that leaves us.
