If this is the case, (for instance your buttons are displaying as the default blue color) just search in your style sheet for... input.ectbutton ...and replace that with... input[type="button"].ectbutton, input[type="submit"].ectbutton If you have also changed the hover values then search for... input.ectbutton:hover ...and replace that with... input[type="button"].ectbutton:hover,input[type="submit"].ectbutton:hover Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
Vince Administrator 43318 Posts	Posted - 01/20/2026 : 04:43:54 I had a rethink about this and as of a couple of years ago we have been moving to the use of HTML <button> tags rather than <input type="button"> because it allows more flexibility for the use of FontAwesome glyphs in the button. So given that this issue about button styles could affect a lot of people I've gone through the cart and it now uses <button> tags exclusively in the v7.9 Advanced Release. You do need a definition for "button.ectbutton" as well as the legacy "input.ectbutton" (and that's been the case for a couple of years now) but it removes the necessity for the changes mentioned above.
