In FP2K,
For some reason the overlay text on navigation bar buttons refuses to
display after I've customised the theme with new background buttons.
It shows up ok in preview mode but not in preview-in-browser mode.
Tried IE5 and NS 4.61 same problem in both.
Rollover effects work ok, just no overlaid text on the button.
Applying a standard theme works ok, it just won't do it on a customised one.
I've customised themes before and had no problem but I can't figure this one
out.

Any ideas anyone?

cheers

Make sure you are not using any .jpg files - themes just don't like them

Also make sure you clear out your caches to see if this helps at all

Really? Our graphic designers have created an entire theme based on
our product logo, and we've been using these JPEG files without any
problems that I know of. If .jpg files don't work, what's the symptom?

Definitely not uisng jpgs, using gifs, besides the gifs show up fine.
It's just that there's no flipping text overlaid on them!
(starting to pull hair out)
