Tweet button not showing

awjameson · 2011-07-23T07:58:52.000Z

I’m trying to add the Tweet button (for sharing URLs) on a website, but the Twitter button never shows up. Instead, all I see is the text underlined as a standard hyperlink.

At this stage I simply have
Tweet

…although I’ve placed widgets.js as the final element before .

Using Firebug, I can see that widgets.js IS loading, but it appears to have no effect on the anchor tag.

Can anyone explain why I’m not seeing the blue “Tweet” as I expected?

Maybe I should also add that I’m currently building using http://localhost… in case that makes a difference.
