Joy of strange things happening and you don’t know why…

 

Just tonight I realize that the little arrown in the drop down list of New/Recently updated topics is not showing.  I’m pretty sure it was there yesterday.  I have no idea what have been modified that could cause this.

 

When looking with Firebug, I see this line:

<span id="spQuickLinksTopicSelect_arrow" class="arrow" style="background-position: 0pt 0pt;"></span>

is show in pale while the similar line for the Select Forum is not pale.  I’m not a Firebug expert so I don’t know what this mean but it could explain why it is not showing?  The drop down list works, but the little arrow is not shown.

yes, that looks right…  but what is the styling applied to the id??

for our supplied themes, its:  images/dd_arrow.gif

does your custom theme have that image file?

Yes, the same arrow is shown in the next box “Select Forum”.

Well, there was another weird char ust the line before the arrow class.  I’ll paste it here…

#spMainContainer #spQuickLinksTopic .dd .ddTitle span.arrow

No idea how it happened.  That was a strange one to find!
