Ok - that did it! And here's a lesson to anyone just starting to work
on their own theme from scratch - even if you don't want tabs on your
site, drupal requires it to function properly. So make sure you have
something that looks like this:<br>
<?php if ($tabs != ""): ?><br>
<div class="tabs"><?php print $tabs ?></div><br>
<?php endif; ?><br>
<br>
As far as I can tell right now it only shows for logged in users
(possibly even only administrators, still getting the hang of roles - i
imagine you can choose who sees it depending on your needs).<br>
<br>
Thanks David for all your help.<br>

well i completely removed my css and my javascript and it still doesn't
work so it's not anything i'm adding. Likely it's something i'm
missing and after looking at the other templates closer I'm realizing
there are other things. The main one I'm not seeing any tabs (which is
why I couldn't find a lot of things such as revisions and also could
explain why i couldn't see the tinyMCE config page). <br>

Well it didn't solve the problem. I'm pretty sure it's something css
so i'm going to start hacking through that.<br>
<br>
It did however get my script loading the way it should, and that makes
me happy. I wish it was documented in a findable place (in otherwords
i'm not saying it's not there, but i searched for $scripts, scripts,
drupal_add_js which I suspected was needed all along etc and couldn't
find it anywhere)<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help. I'll report back whether it was a css thing or
if i need more help.<br>

ok - just tested it - it's not the *{} css block. it must be something
else in the theme, something i'm missing perhaps.<br>

I am including the following in my theme:<br>

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php print base_path() .

(p.s. - i'm sure there's a way to get my custom javascript into the
scripts variable but i couldn't figure it out from the documentation
and the themes that i downloaded that used javascript were all doing it
this way. i'd love to do it the proper way though)<br>
<br>
my javascript isn't doing anything that should break these editors.
There's no styling in the css for textareas. However there is this
global css declaration - I've gotten into the habit of always setting
this and then overriding when necessary because I've found it makes my
life easier. It's the only thing i can think of that might cause it,
other than a block of php code i need to include that i'm not:<br>
*{<br>
margin:0px;<br>
padding:0px;<br>
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;<br>
font-size: 12px;<br>
line-height:19px;<br>
color:#46403a;<br>
}<br>
<br>
specifically the margin and/or padding being set to 0 on textareas... I
wouldn't think that would mess it up, but it's all i've come up with so
far<br>

Ok, having a simalar but not quite the same issue with fckeditor. with
fckeditor i can edit the admin options. I realized with both that i
have to enable them in roles so i did that. I also tried uploading
them into /modules instead of sits/all/modules/ but no change, still
getting plain text in edit fields. Any suggestions? Drupal will be
pretty much useless for me if I can't get wysiwyg working (even though
i hate it myself, the client can't handle it otherwise).<br>

<pre wrap="">and now for my own support question. As my client is not html savvy,
one of my early requirements is to get a wysiwyg editor working. I
chose tinyMCE as the first trial because I'm thinking IMCE will be a
good add-on (although on second look it now also supports FCK so if I
can't get an answer here i may just try that). I downloaded the tinyMCE
module official release 5.x-1.9, downloaded tinyMCE version 2.1.1.1 and
put it in the directory as specified and uploaded it. I enabled the
module in admin but it didn't show up. Figured I had to configure it so
went to the tinyMCE configuration page but that page is blank. I'm on
drupal 5.2 and I noticed the note (or copy the TinyMCE files into the
module's includes folder for the 5.2 users) but there is no includes
folder in the version i downloaded.
Does anyone know whether I should create the includes folder or have to
download the dev version (always should be a last option in a production
site of course), if i need a different version of tinyMCE or some other
issue I might be having?
