Keyboard buttons not showing up on Web Interface TP

For troubleshooting and emulation, I frequently use the web version of the TPD3 file (ftp'd to the master).

To access a protected Tech page on the TP, an alphanumeric password has to be entered by pressing a keyboard button. The keyboard shows up correctly on the actual TP but when the same button is pressed on the Web TP, the keyboard pops up but all the buttons are blanked out; i can make out the shapes of the different keys but the text on all the keys is blank!!

Anybody run into this problem before?

PS: Page Tracking is switched ON and all the page flips are synchronised between the actual TP and the web TP.

    HTML may not support the fonts you are trying to use. Try a different font for your keyboard text. Sometimes you also need to put in a small delay for popups to appear when using a G3 web panel.

    The keyboard I am trying to see on the web TP is the built in keyboard that pops up when you press a button programmed as a keyboard button on the G3 panel.

    If I'm not mistaken, that keyboard uses levels for the button displays just like the G4 version does - that's how they change the text labels when you select upper case, lower case, etc.. If not levels, it's some internal mechanism that is similar. Either way, web panels aren't going to support it. If that is the case, you are going to have to bite the bullet and make your own keyboard page for that purpose. If I'm wrong, it may simply be that those pages use the internal font and your browser can't access it.

    Working Now!

    I copied the 'keyboard button' (button which brings up the built-in keyboard) from a different room code in which the web TP was working fine. And voila, now the keyboard comes up on the web TP, it accepts the alphanumeric password remotely and flips to the correct page.

    I still can't figure out why the older button did not work on the web TP, the button properties and button type are exactly same for both buttons. The only difference is that the previous code was originally built with an older version of TPDesign3. Any pointers???

    Well, since nothing that I said seemed to apply, I'll have to claim bafflement myself :). Perhaps it's just a newer version of TPClasses.jar .
