Exactly.  I checked your website. its on domaindlx which is free webhost. So disable that and RTE editor. then it should work fine.
Also, disable if there are any uploads or email components you have enabled.

first thanks 4 ur immediate reply

i disabled them as u said - the basic editor works just fine and i can live with it

i didn't disable uploading as i use pure asp upload without components and it works amazingly

the question here is how does the server have any effect on the WYCIWYG editor? I mean I had once a forum on brinkster and the editor worked just fine

anyway thanks one more time - the basic editor is ok although it's a little bit difficult for the members of the forum

i have seen that link but i could not get it working.

plz explain how u configured it. and who is ur webhost ?

my webhost is: http://www.domaindlx.com - www.domaindlx.com  - my forum version: 7.01

the steps I made r as following:

1. I downloaded http://www.asp101.com/articles/jacob/upload_files_without_com_v2.zip - this file

2. i uploaded those two files: clsField.asp and clsUpload.asp in the functions folder (forum folder)

3. i didn't actually use the other files in the zip in anything

4. i followed the instructions mentionend in the link i gave u (i use Editplus as an editor and I think u should also use an editor that displays the line numbers as any mistake will make it not work)

here r the instructions:

Find these files and edit them like so:

Code:            '******************************************            '*** Pure ASP Upload (no components) ****            '******************************************            'Pure ASP (no components)            Case "none"                 'Create upload object                 Set objUpload = New clsUpload                 With objUpload                       'Grab the file name                       strNewFileName = .Fields("file").FilePath                       'Remove the path from the file name                       strNewFileName = Right(strNewFileName, Len(strNewFileName)-InStrRev(strNewFileName, "\"))                       'Replace spaces with underscores                       strNewFileName = Replace(strNewFileName, " ", "_", 1, -1, 1)                       'Append the username to avoid duplicate filenames                       'strNewFileName = strLoggedInUsername & "_" & strNewFileName                       'Check the file size                       lngErrorFileSize = fileSize(.Fields("file").Length, intMaxFileSize)                       'Check the extension                       blnExtensionOK = fileExtension(strNewFileName, saryFileUploadTypes)                       'If the file is OK save it to disk                       If lngErrorFileSize = 0 AND blnExtensionOK = True Then                            'Save the binary data to a file                            .Fields("file").SaveAs Server.MapPath(strFileUploadPath) & "\" & strNewFileName                          &nbs Posted By: india Date Posted: 22 December 2003 at 10:35am Nousha, which folder did u configure upload too ? What upload path u set in admin area ? Did u create upload folder ? Did u give them write permissions ? If yes how ? and to match with upload folder, did you change anything in any file ??? thx Posted By: nousha Date Posted: 22 December 2003 at 2:11pm i didn't actually create upload folder u know there's an upload folder already - i didn't use that upload2 in the zip file or anything i did nothing but uploading the clsField.asp and clsUpload.asp in the functions folder (forum folder) and edited the files mentioned above luckily that my host does't require me to give write permissions as there are already Posted By: india Date Posted: 23 December 2003 at 1:35am nousha wrote: u know there's an upload folder already - i didn't use that upload2 in the zip file or anything Thanks 4 ur reply. If im not wrong, Windows webhosts give read n write permissions by default bcuz CHMOD does NOT work on their servers. What path did u give 2 upload folder i n admin area ?
