Hello,
I recently upgraded (via fresh installs) both my home PC and work PC to Fedora 15. No problems generally, but one odd thing I noticed.
In firefox the reload button is a green colour at work, but grey at home. Not 'greyed-out' as the 'stop' button is, but just a grey in colour. I assumed this was just some sort of theme difference, but looking through a sorted list of the installed rpms from the work and home PCs I really cannot see what might be causing this. Customizing the firefox toolbar makes no difference (I can add/remove things but not change their colour). If I click on the button the current web page reloads, but the button itself does not change at all on either PC. (Unlike the 'stop' button which turns red whilst the page reloads, and then becomes greyed-out when it has finished.)
Anyone any ideas? As said, it's not a hindrance or am that bothered by it, I'm more just curious as to why it has happened at all.
Thanks,
John.

Mine is grey also, although when I click on it it changes (briefly) into a red cross while the page is refreshed.

Yes with the default toolbar, if I remember correctly, the reload button turns into a 'stop' button temporarily while the page is reloading. In my case I have customised the toolbar simply to separate the buttons out a bit. I also use 'icons and text'. However I did this with both PCs, so, again, the reload button should be the same for both.

Okay, I have this sorted out now.
The green reload button is an icon in the oxygen-icon-theme package. Konqueror uses the same icons it seems.
Both PCs have the package installed. However on the work PC I must have told the desktop to use the Oxygen theme (probably when I did it it set something in my home directory and that was copied across when I upgraded to F15). On my home PC I went into the KDE menu System settings -> Application appearance -> Icons -> Oxygen icon theme.
Once I had done that firefox showed the green reload button.
John.
