PaulPet,
All the plastic tubes should be connected somewhere. If they are not water may have been sucked into the push button.
The flush mechanism is basically a plunger which lifts to flush the loo, the cances are that this is stuck. Try lightly rocking the central column in the cistern an see if this will free the plunger.
