Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with two form buttons. They only show up as gray rectangles with their labels. Ignore all the other ugly elements as this site is still being worked on. Below are links to the test site and style sheet. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. I've only used this forum a few times but it always yields superior results.

Thanks again,

Thats because they are standard buttons (which cant be seen in IE7 by the way...)

You need to use an image for the buttons to make them look different or use a css class to change their colour, size, text etc.

Well, I'm not trying to give them any special style. I would just like them to show up like normal form buttons. They just look like text with a gray background in a Safari browser.

You need to tell the button to not have a border or a background.

I updated the buttons with CSS that tells them not to have a border or background, and now the buttons just appear as black text in Safari/Firefox.

Any other thoughts?

Sorry if this doesn't work but try just doing
<input type="button" value="whatever">
or if it is a submit button it'd be better to just make it
<input type="submit" value="submit">
Lastly you can do what i like to do which is to go on to some sort of program like photoshop, design the button and put it as an image. Then you can do the following:

<img src="button1.gif" onClick="func1 ()">

Then in your heading tags put the following code

<script type="text/javascript">
function func1 ()
{
window.location("whereveryouwanttodirectto.html");
}
</script>

where i put "window.location..." you can put any code of which you want to execute.
