[solved] dijit.form.DateTextBox rendering problem - Decrement month button not visible in ff2 in linux

Submitted by mgordon on Sat, 03/29/2008 - 09:16.

I can't see the decrement month sign (<) in the calendar, this works in windows but not in Ubuntu ff2. I've checked the tests and there it looks fine. I can't understand why it ain't working... Here's my "clean" test:

Changed to:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
            "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

and suddenly it works like a charm :-)
