I recently did an upgrade to 1.12 and decided I wanted to also add some buttons to the toolbar. I have already added the TexBox extension and that button was installed and working. I then proceeded to add a slew of other buttons using the ones from other users and following the instructions, I added them to Mediawiki:Common.js & they worked fine. However after a few other upgrades i.e. Apache2 and a few others, now the buttons do not appear on my machines, inside my intranet. I have been told, and have seen myself, that they do appear when the pages are viewed from outside my internal network. I figure I have crapped up something with my system, but can not tell what is wrong. Any ideas are appreciated. BTW; I am very much in a learning mode, so pointing to any resource is great. Along with the disappearing buttons the left menu panel is now below the page and the decorations at the very top of the page disappeared. Is this normal in 1.12 or did I alter something. I am using the CologneBlue skin.
This is a non-production site that I am learning on.

So, what's the difference between inside & outside? Does it use different domains? Are you including images from sites out there unreachable from the intranet? Is your server configured to reject the buttons to internal users?

My servers sit behide a hardware firewall and are operated from a NAT based internal addressing system. For example, If I put in the address http://www.physicswiki.net into my browser it craps out & says that the network is unavailable. However the browser is configured to use the intranet IP address via my router to 'see' the websites. example http://127.00.00.001/wiki
Does it use different domains?
explained above

NO

Not by intent.
Thanks! John
Check you aren't referencing www.physicswiki.net anywhere. If it's trying to include anything from there you won't be seeing from inside :)
