Thanks Esmi for your input.

No gears used at the moment. This is really odd.

If I copy paste from within wp it’s fine, if I copy something outside of wp and paste it in, it reverts back to the old text…

I thought it was client side but doing the same from a Fedora equiped laptop has the same results.

I’s a new site and not much content, I think I’ll trash it and start clean. I have other wp on the same host, same rev level and same plugins and they are ok.

Spent too much time on this.

Thanks again and I’ll close this.

Thanks for the tips, have done so but still no joy. Just to add a little more to this, you can pasts but when you click on the update page/post the pasted text disappears and the old text remains.

Could this be an issue with the DB? Is there some way of doing internal testing/trouble shooting or is there a log I could look at?

Thanks again
Nick
