I've just clicked on about 30 different 'Edit' buttons on verious posts and they all worked fine.
It sounds like Firefox just didn't fire the initilise for the RTE in
time as becuase of the header.asp file I couldn't use the body onLoad
event to start the RTE, instead I had to place it just after textarea
with a delay on it.
Hitting refresh should solve the problem for the moment till I can find a better solution.

I can still see there being problems with people with slow connections,
as for the RTE initialise function to run the external javascript file
needs to be loaded first.
Really the initialise command needs to be an onLoad event in the body of
the page, so that it is only fired when all elements and external
elements for the page have loaded.
The problem is due to the header.asp file in the forum to make customisation
simpler, that the body tag for all the pages is kept in this file.
It then makes it difficult to add the onLoad event required for the RTE
into the body tag of just those pages that have the RTE as they are all
sharing this same header.asp include file with the body tag being
within this file.
It then also makes customisation more difficult as it means if someone
customises the header.asp file so the forum fits in better with their
site, if they forget to place the onLoad event into the body tag the
RTE will fail to load correctly.
Does anyone know of anyway to get around this problem?

not sure if this is to do with what you was talking about or not but...
just now i was about to post a suggestion
and as i use FireFox, when i typed it put wot i typed in the text box
as normal, and also in the "Find" box, maybe i just clicked this box to
fast to type, before it had loaded so firefox was confused and thought
i wanted to 'find' a word

-boRg- what about using a veriable .
have
if blnRTEActive = True then response.write ("onload='run RTE javascript'")
and on the pages that hold the RTE have the veriable set at the top of
the page before the is written/header.asp. that way you
can add it to the pages. that require it?
i mean use something like
response.write ("<body ")
if blnRTEActive = True then response.write (" onload='run RTE javascript'")
response.write(">")

It's a bit more complex than that deciding if the RTE will appear in
the page and sometimes can only been done after all the other code is
loaded, like the reply box on this page.
