Buttons (New, Edit, Delete) won't display on first load, why?
Buttons (New, Edit, Delete) won't display on first load, why?

On first load of this page the buttons are not displayed at the top. If I load the page again by clicking on the link in left nav. bar buttons are rendered on top-left. Any ideas?
I have spent a day trying to figure this out. Any help is much appreciated.
Below is part of the HTML code that gets pulled and displayed into main index.html page ( which takes
<
div> tag to display in it's body of the page.)

I don't immediately see the issue from your code above. Can you link to a page showing the issue please?

Hi Allan,
It is sitting on my personal desktop at home, I'll be more than happy to share, is there a page that explains how I can share code please? Currently the site link is not visitable from outside.
Thanks,
RG
