Currently when cookiless session is enabled and RadButton with custom image is used the Image is not displayed, until the button is hovered. ASPX: <telerik:RadButton ID="ButtunTest" runat="server" Icon-PrimaryIconUrl="~/Examples7/eClose.png" Text="Testbutton" Width="200px" UseSubmitBehavior="False" /> Web.Config: <system.web> <sessionState cookieless="true"></sessionState> </system.web> The workaround is to override the background image of the button: <style> .RadButton.RadButton_Default.rbSkinnedButton .rbPrimaryIcon { background-image: url("/RadControlsWebSite2/Examples7/eClose.png"); } </style>
