InfoPath Dev

Hi,

I able to change the background image button but when i publish to Sharepoint i cant see the image and when i open the form in design mode, i able to see the image.

 I have created a picture library in Sharepoint to store the images and thought it well help for the form to display the image but it still the same on the missing image.

May i know what is wrong here and please help?

Thanks. 

Hi!

See the previous post: "We can do in a same way, add the background image url for <table>tag of repeating table in view.xsl file."

This is the only way i know.

Hi

Image buttons will not work for IPFS forms.

Hi,

This is where i have added the image into the tag for the button background in the view.xsl :

<input class="langFont" title="" style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; BACKGROUND-POSITION: left top; BORDER-TOP: medium none; FONT-SIZE: x-small; BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(cancelbutton.png); BORDER-LEFT: medium none; WIDTH: 74px; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BACKGROUND-REPEAT: no-repeat; HEIGHT: 23px" type="button" size="1" xd:xctname="Button" xd:CtrlId="CTRL441_5" tabIndex="0"/>

It still not show on the Sharepoint after deploy. If button image background not work in InfoPath then is there a way to make it show in web-browser form?

Hi, if you really need an image on your button, you may try this.

1. Insert the button image on your form, not add the image to Tool > Resource files.
2. Modify view1.xsl to overlap the button on top of the image by setting the css style of the button/image.
3. Set the button border to none.
4. Set the button backgound-color to transparent.
5. MUST set many '&#160;' (not '&nbsp;') to the button value attribute (if you leave it empty, then this button is not clickable);
6. Save the changes, open manifest.xsf and preview the form, you should see your image and you can click on it.
7. Publish your form.
8. PROBLEM: the button is still displayed next to the image, even though I've set it to overlap on top of the image :( nothing happen if I click on the image, but the form is submitted if I click on the space next to the image :(

Please let me know if you have to solution for my problem.

Thanks.
