    The buttons to submit a new thread here in the Help forum as well as to submit a reply in a thread are missing their text to let the user know what the button is for.

    The Two buttons to submit this new thread display "C a Th ad" on one, and " v w " on the other.

    Everything is fine on my end, across multiple browsers and platforms.

    What OS/version and browser/version combo are you using? Can't help without that.

    Also, try using another platform or browser, clear your cache, and do a hard fresh of the page.

    I'm in Google Chrome using Windows XP. Let me see if I can find which Chrome version.

    Ouch. Windows XP is 13+ years old and is no longer supported; not even by Windows.

    The only version info that I can find for Chrome is V3, and I'm not certain that is a version.

    Yeah, I know about XP being unsupported by Microsoft, and I have a laptop with Windows 8.1 that I also use, but I use this old machine a lot too. (Until now maybe.)

    Okay, I'm on my laptop now, and everything is okay with the buttons. It must be something about the old version of Windows, or it possibly could be related to a difficult boot-up this morning on the old desktop. A new desktop is coming in the near future, and probably none too soon. :wink: Thanks for looking into this 'non-problem.'

    FYI, @Todd, I just re-booted this old desktop, and all of the buttons are back to normal. So it must have something to do with the difficult boot-up this morning, and it's definitely not your BA site. Thanks again.
