Hi,
In one of my sites "Split summary at cursor" is gone.... and the summary field. I'm running 6.1. Any idea what could cause this? Is there a setting which I could accidentally have touched? Or code which I've destroyed?
List of installed modules:
cck i18n parentmenufilter pathauto tinymce token
I realize this is one of those hard questions to crack from the distance, but *any* idea is much appreciated.

By now I'm sure installing
By now I'm sure installing the TinyMCE module is the culprit. Any idea how to fix this?
I am having the same problem,
I am having the same problem, and have yet to solve it, was it the tinymce module?
split cursor gets removed with fckeditor also.
I had the same problem, and it is not just tinymce, but also fckeditor. It does not appear to be a problem with tinymce, or any other editor, but just the way Drupal acts once an editor is enabled. (I'm on Drupal 6.12, using the wysiwyg module).
To replicate: Install the wysiwyg module. From within wysiwyg, download tinymce and install tinymce to a sites/all/libraries/tinymce folder according to the directions. From modules, then wysiwyg, enable tinymce. Try creating content. tinymce should work fine, except instead of "split cursor at summary" - (which people really like!) - it says "show summary in full view", and that is not as user-friendly as the "split cursor at summary" function.
I looked up the problem at drupal.org, and see people reporting it as though it is a tinymce bug since at least April 2008. Some people claim to have found a workaround solution, but there is no consensus that the solutions worked for everyone and all browsers.
To return to the previous state, with "split cursor....", I cannot simply go back into wysiwyg and remove the editor. The "split cursor at summary" does not return. I had to go into modules and disable wysiwyg. Once I did that, "show summary in full view" went away and "split cursor at summary" returned.
If there is a way to split cursor at summary AND use some of these editors, this should probably be considered a priority functional request.
I agree
Why is this not a top priority?
Same Problem - And yes it has a major End User impact
This is a fairly serious problem. One of the most frequent requirements I get from users is to have a WYSIWYG editor. At the same time, the "Insert Drupal Break" function (e.g., TinyMCE) does not work in the editor because it adds a broken image link. The result is that users have NO usable way to break their content into a Teaser Summary without manually creating or editing the HTML.
From reading various posts, I believe the likely culprit is the WYSIWYG API module since the issue shows up across multiple editors.
