Hello, I am trying to make our asp:Textbox and asp:Button visible on IE8 however nothing is showing up.

We are using Microsoft Expression here is the code:

XML

You need to find out if the button etc is being rendered to the browser, or if it is just the browser not displaying it due to css. View the source of the page and see if you can find the button. If it is there then examine the css applied to the button by using the browser's dev tools to examine its style. That should give you an idea what it is that is stopping it from showing, it could be the visibility or display attrubutes, maybe the height or width etc. Google diagnosing css issues with browser tools if you need a hand.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

When I view the source it does show the buttons/text box in the code and in the design area on Microsoft Expression the buttons and textbox show up. I've tried changing the css and commenting it out and still nothing shows up. Is there anything else we can do?

There's *something* in the css affecting it to make it not show. The browser's dev tools can show you what styles are affecting an element.

Thanks again for getting back to me, I made the following changes to the code and pretty much removed all the CSS and I still receive nothing but in the design tab in Microsoft expression all of the boxes and buttons are there.

Here's the new code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<% @ Page Language="C#" %>
<html dir="ltr" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" />
<title>Returns Received Report</title>
</head>

<body>

<div class="auto-style2">
<body bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><p></p>
<div class="auto-style2">
<br />
<br />
<span class="auto-style1">Search for a Return<br/>
<br />
</span>:
</div>

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div class="auto-style4">
<asp:TextBox id="Customer" runat="server" Visible="true" Width="261px" Height="22px" BackColor="White" BorderColor="Black">
<asp:Button id="Button1" runat="server" Visible="true" PostBackUrl="Customer.aspx" Text="Search by Customer" BorderStyle="Outset" />
</div>

<br />
<br />
<asp:TextBox id="PO" runat="server" Visible="true" Width="261px" EnableViewState="True">
<asp:Button id="Button2" runat="server" Visible="true" PostBackUrl="Order Number.aspx" Text="Search by Order Number" BorderStyle="Outset" Width="181px" />
<br />
<br />
<asp:TextBox id="ADDRESS" runat="server" Visible="true" Width="261px">
<asp:Button id="Button3" runat="server" PostBackUrl="Street_Address.aspx" Text="Search by Street Address" BorderStyle="Outset" Width="181px" />
<br />
<p>
<asp:TextBox id="TrackingNumber" runat="server" Visible="true" Width="261px">
<asp:Button id="Button4" runat="server" PostBackUrl="TrackingNumber.aspx" Text="Search by Tracking Number" BorderStyle="Outset" Width="181px" />
</p>
<p>
<asp:TextBox id="VerifiedDate" runat="server" Visible="true" Width="261px" CssClass="auto-style3">
<asp:Button id="Button5" runat="server" PostBackUrl="TrackingNumber.aspx" Text="Search by Verified Date" BorderStyle="Outset" Width="181px" />
</p>

</div>
<p> </p>
</form>

</body>
