I have installed tinyMCE and most everything is working except the ability to add a link. If you highlight text and click on the link icon the box opens, lets you put in a URL and lets you click insert, but it does not add a link.

Any ideas? The bold, lists, image and all work, so I am making the wild assumption that I have installed correctly (that only took 2 tires).

thanks in advance for any help or guidance. I posted this on the module page last week, but there has been no response. I sort of need this to work now-ish.

This should be in your site's sites\all\modules\tinymce\tinymce\jscripts\tiny_mce\plugins\ folder and should contain (amongst other things) editor_plugin.js and editor_plugin_src

If you're having real problems with TinyMCE, I can email you a tar.gz or zip file of the whole TinyMCE module directory with everything where it should be.

If the links look OK in the editor, but not when viewing the node content, the problem is most likely the HTML filter 'allowed tags' settings; if not, it's a TinyMCE problem.

never seen this problem, but just a quick sanity check: are you sure the links are not being added (inspect HTML and there's no <a> tag)? depending on how your CSS is configured, the link could be added but unnoticeable in the editor window.

I am 1000% sure that the links are not being added. No tags, no link look, no change of cursor or any other thing that may indicate a link. I thought it was pretty odd too.

just another sanity check: you're looking at the code in the node add/edit screen, not the rendered/filtered output, correct? (if the link is appearing in the editor, but not in the rendered output, be sure the <a> tag is allowed by your input format's HTML filter.)
