[Chameleon] TextButton SharedResource Problem

[Rene Teniere]

Ok all,

Finally got it working. All of the paths had to be absolute for the
images and font files. I think one of my font files were corrupted,
because I reinstalled them in the ETC directory, and it worked fine.
Also, setting the usetextbuttoncache value to false works from the start
as long as everything else is set correctly (i.e. paths). Thanks to Paul
who guided me through this, I appreciate it.

Later,
  Rene

Paul,

I've been fooling around with this and I believe that we are very
close
to figuring this out. I decided to change the image SRC's to absolute
paths, then delete all temp buttons and set the cache to false. When I
did this, it would not load the site, however, when I set the cache
back
to true, the site came back up with the image in the button loaded.
This
seems to work, but I'll have to fool with it some more. Hopefully
you'll
have some ideas.

Rene,
you have the value of usetextbuttoncache set to true, which means that

the buttons will never be regenerated.  Try setting this to false. 
You

can also try manually deleting all the button images.  If you are
using

MS4W then this directory would be /ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/buttons/ - delete 
everything in it.  If you are not, then you would have set a value for

the button cache path in the cwc2.xml file

Cheers,

Paul
