[Pro] Problems with Buttons

I am trying to enhance a site to include Mals E Commerce shopping cart.

I have created a simple table of items and in one of the Cols i plan to put the “BUY” button associated with the item, to get the Button i select the table cell and get the insert flashing icon and then choose Form Item > Button, once the Button is inserted i apply the E Buy Button Action, the issues i have are:-

  1. When i view the page on a Browser if i Zoom In the text in the button resizes but the background of the button does not.
  2. Is there a way to change the background of the button to match the background of the page? and to change the color of the text within the button. if i can fix this issue then the first problem in 1, above will not be so noticeable.

thank You

John

I need to correct some parts of my initial post please read the following:-

ref the above and the words

“i select the table cell and get the insert flashing icon and then choose Form Item > Button”

should have read.

“i select the table cell and double click inside the cell to get the “flashing Insert icon” and then choose the Insert > Form Items > Button”

Apologise for the confusion.

When i view the page on a Browser if i Zoom In the text in the button resizes but the background of the button does not.

Can you explain a bit more what your issue is - I am not seeing a problem. What browser are you using?

You can use any graphic you like and attach the E-Buy Button action to it.

David,

Interesting…i am mainly using Chrome to do the initial testing, so the error occurs under Chrome but does nto under Firefox.
All i am doing is displaying the page and then Selecting CTRL & + to zoom in and i get the button text and image react in different ways, the text seems to enlarge and the button does not.

According to the Freeway reference you need to insert a standard Button before you apply the E-Buy action i was not aware that you can use any Graphic.

Thx

Not seeing that with Chrome 22

What I do see is that the Button is at the top of the cell - not in the middle.

David,

I am on Chrome Version 23.0.1271.64.

Yes the button at the top of the cell is another problem as i have set the style up with the Vertical Align set to middle, which works for all other cell data.

I may just give up on this one and use the E Buy Text Action which i have more control over as seen in the 5th option on the page which is enabled with this Action.

BTW - it looks like you have an empty line/return in your cell under the Button.

I would clear out the cell by cutting the button, deleting all contents and pasting back in.

David,

Sorted, i had the table cell vertical align set before i inserted the Button, I assume that what was causing the issue. I still have the Zoom issue on Chrome though.

How do i copy an image into the Forum response? i can show you the end result.

I still have the Zoom issue on Chrome

Post a link and lets look with a range of browsers but if it is only really evident when zooming with Chrome 23 I am not sure I would be wasting any time over it.

This thread tells you how http://freewaytalk.net/thread/view/120332

Needs to be a Web ready image file hosted on your own server!

Do it right and you will see it in the web forum preview
