The Browse button to select files for upload works correctly in all browsers and is displayed correctly in Chrome and Firefox.

However in IE6, IE8, IE9 (IE7 not tested) the button is there and works, but the text is missing. Its just a blank button, slightly smaller then usually.

I know it is not an CSS issue and for completeness I tried disabling the CSS styles without success.

When Javascript is disabled, the button shows correctly.

Any ideas or suggestions how I can trace back what javascript function modified the style of the File browse button in IE?

Could you include a screenshot? Perhaps try changing your theme to Garland also. I haven't ever seen a report like this before.

Thanks for your help quicksketch, it makes debugging a lot easier, when you know that it works for someone else.

I have not fixed it yet, but found the culprit:
It only happens if it the group containing the field is placed inside a vertical tab, which is initially not active. The javascript there is probably not restrictive enough.

Edit: I am using some custom jQuery and as it seems taking away and assigning visibility via the css property causes some problems with the button in IE.
