Magnifying Glass icon in Search form in a custom 404 page & Search Results page

Dear Support Team: In my trying to add the Search form to my custom 404 page’s body, as in e.g.:

Nothing Found – Sorry, the post you are looking for is not available. Maybe you want to perform a search?
<search box> <magnifying glass search button>

The magnifying glass search button appears correctly for me there, but when I do a search from that search box, on the Search Results page, the magnifying glass search button is not displaying correctly on that page’s Search forms (neither in the header nor the body):

<search box> <little box with EB03 in it>

If I do a search via the Header’s Search form, the buttons appear correctly on the Search Results page.

Here’s how I got to this problem. First, I tried to add the following to a Code block on my custom 404 page, as you do in your default error404.php file:

<?php

get_search_form();

?>

but that did nothing. So I deleted that code. Then I tried copying and pasting into the Code block the following HTML Form code that I got from the source code for a 404 page from https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/x.html, a page that of course does not exist (I’m commenting out the initial part that is external to my Code block):

<!--<div class="entry entry-content-wrapper clearfix" id='search-fail'>
<p class='entry-content'><strong>Nothing Found</strong><br/>
Sorry, the post you are looking for is not available. Maybe you want to perform a search?</p>-->

<form action="https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-2017/" id="searchform" method="get" class="">
	<div>
		<input type="submit" value="" id="searchsubmit" class="button avia-font-entypo-fontello" />
		<input type="text" id="s" name="s" value="" placeholder='Search' />
        </div>
</form>

Of course, I’m not surprised that just copying and pasting that search button’s value would not render properly on the Search Results page: as I said, it rendered as a little box with EB03 in it instead of the magnifying glass icon–in both the header and body search forms.

Can you please help?

Thanks,
Gary
