Web Parts not Editable On-Site
I'm having an issue with on-site editing of editableText web parts. The Web Parts within the first Web Part Container show the edit tabs on highlight, but the Web Part Containers further down in the page do not show the edit tabs. The entire page is built with Web Part Containers and editableText Web Parts. I can see and edit those Web Parts in CMSDesk, just not with on-site editing. I've checked the ID's on Web Parts and containers, but could have overlooked something. I also tried inline editing, but that seems to only work in CMSDesk.

Top of Page:

Scrolling down the page (logo/banner is fixed), no editing tabs:

RE:Web Parts not Editable On-Site
Hello,

This seems to be a CSS issue because on the second image you can see that the dotted border is being cut off on both sides, right below the banner. Please try adding additional padding to the Content After property to see if the button will render. Using FireBug or a similar development tool may help you track down the issue. If the site is accessible online, we could also take a look to see if there is anything obvious but the issue is most likely somewhere in the CSS definitions.

Best Regards,
Sandro

RE:Web Parts not Editable On-Site
Thanks. It was a CSS issue. Absolute position on the containing div prevented the editing frames from being rendered.
