Have you got a live url?
hi – unfortunately it’s on a test server right now – but the problem is the same as i’ve seen on some other threads in this forum. The magnifying glass search icon just doesnt display for some reason… I can see the file name in the zip file for the template (icon-search.gif) – however it just doesnt display.
Many thanks,
Alex
Hi – i’ve uploaded onto a test site: http://www.gary.nsiagroup.com/index.php
as you can see – the search image does not display for any of the colour variations… can you advise?

There’s some errors with your file, I’ve link directly to it and got this message
<blockquote>The image “http://www.gary.nsiagroup.com/templates/ja_mageia/images/icon-search.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.</blockquote>
Try to replace your icon-search.gif with this one and see the result.

Hope it help.

I have the same problem with image not displaying. Also got the ‘contains errors’ message. Have replaced with the one suggested above and, although it will display when linking to it directly, it is still not showing on my site.
Any further ideas?

Or pls try this
Open template_css.css go to line 1253 and you’ll see #ja-search
replace the line
<blockquote>background:transparent url(../images/icon-search.gif) no-repeat scroll left center;</blockquote>
with this one
<blockquote>background:transparent url(http://template.joomlart.com/ja_mageia/templates/ja_mageia/images/icon-search.gif) no-repeat scroll left center;</blockquote>
Close all browse (clear all tempolary files) and reopen your site, see what happen. Tell me the result if success or not.
Thank you so much! I followed your instructions above and the search image now displays!! Many thanks for your help!! 😀

Yeah, that’s mean you got the problem with the gif file, for long-term use, I would recommended you copy the gif file to some location on you site, and give the full url in the xxxxx below
<blockquote>background:transparent url(xxxxx) no-repeat scroll left center; </blockquote>
Anyway, it’s good hear it’s solved.

Unfortunately these instructions have not resolved my problem. I have tested in IE7, IE6, FireFox2, Safari and Camino and am still unable to get the image to display. I’m also slightly concerned to have to rely on a link to an external image, even if it did work :confused:

Can you give me your site’s URL, primarywise?

Hi again
I’ve resolved it …….
1. The original icon-search.gif provided in the template images folder is corrupt
2. icon-search.gif is missing from the cyan, red and orange directories under templates/ja_mageia/images
I was using cyan as the default colour scheme. I’ve replaced icon-search.gif with that suggested earlier in the post and populated the colour choice directories with the same and all is now fine.
Definitely needs correcting as a bug-fix!
Kind regards
Chris
The following images were also corrupt in my download:
images/checklist-bg.gif
images/cyan/checklist-bg.gif
images/orange/checklist-bg.gif
images/user-screen1.gif
images/user-screen2.gif
images/v-sep.gif
(Don’t know if the user-screen pics are used though, seems like the png versions are used instead.)
I’ve checked these too and they’re corrupted on my download.

A couple of other image issues:
body-bg.jpg missing from cyan directory …. the file in there is actually a gif!
arrow.png missing from cyan, red and orange directories
Really, we should expect better quality control than this! 🙁
