Note, I have discovered a workaround with which I can live in the process of writing this email. I've decided to complete the email so that someone else having a like problem might find this.
I have created a new site using a codebase shared with others.
I have created two input formats General All roles may use default format configure Wiki authenticated user, Committee configure delete
For some time I was fixated on these being at the heart of my problem, but it's not so.
I have created a user account, santa, with no special permissions, but then created the roles Committee (which you see there) and Power, with permission to do everything.
Using another browser, SeaMonkey 1.1.14, I logged on as Santa and created a blog entry. I have subsequently editted it a few times.
The first problem I noticed is that the menu for "Input format" does not expand.
Some time later I saw that "Attached Images" and "Book Outline" do not expand either.
While composing this email, I logged onto another of my sites, one where I have created content successfully in the past and discovered the same problem.
My conclusion is that the version of Seamonkey I am using is incompatible with Drupal 6.x. I do have Javascript enabled
Just possibly, the problem arises because I have denied cookies: while loading the page in question, I get two messages on the Seamonkey error console.
You need to select the roles on the "Input Format" settings form of the roles who have ability to use that format. If only one is usable then there is no reason to allow for a selection.
Thanks for your reply. I know that, and that isn't the problem. As I already explained, it works in Firefox but not in Seamonkey. Therefore, my configuration is fine and there's a problem in Drupal or the aged version of Seamonkey I use. If it's something in Drupal, it's probably something obscure as af first glance it doesn't seem to me to be sensitive about what browser is in use.
Also check your admin/settings/filters/defaults page and your admin/settings/filters/settings page.
You might be interested in the better_formats module as well.
Thanks for that tip!
