I haave a moderator who is trying to edit a post. The edit_post_form.asp page appears but instead of displaying the message, the words "Permission Denied!!" appears. The phrase comes from RTE-textarea.asp and the line that causes the error is:
'If this is an edit or quote then stripout who edited the post and check permisisons
If strMode = "edit" OR strMode="editTopic" OR strMode = "quote" Then
'Call teh forum permissions function
Call forumPermissions(intForumID, intGroupID)
'If the user dosn't have permisison to view/edit/post/etc. then don't let them read the post
If (strMode = "edit" OR strMode="editTopic") AND (blnAdmin = False AND blnModerator = False) Then
If blnRead = False OR blnEdit = False Then strMessage = "Permission Denied!!"
ElseIf strMode = "quote" Then
If blnRead = False OR blnReply = False Then strMessage = "Permission Denied!!"
End If
End If
In this case, strMode = editTopic and blnModerator = True.

It sounds like moderator permissions for this user have not been correctly set for that forum.

Thanks Borg, when I test the values that the code is looking for, strMode = editTopic and blnModerator = True so Permission Denied error should not appear. The Moderator group permission settings are set to allow them to edit posts and Forum Moderator is also checked for this user.

If permissions are set correctly then you may have a corrupted file, try reuploading the files again and see if that solves the problem, if not go back to your permissions setup as it would seem there is something not set correctly somewhere along the line.

Permissions are set correctly because it works on all computers except the boss's. What could possibly prevent a moderator from editing a post on one computer but not on any other computers? He is accepting cookies and is able to do other functions as well.
I even gave him my logon as Admin and he still receives Permission Denied!!
