Happy new year to you all guys. Thanks for all the responses and suggestions over the past year.

I have a fairly simply problem.

I have a custom node type and I want to customize the its edit view. So I created node-mytype-edit.tpl.php and put it on my server. I cleared the cache and ran the cron but the simple text I included in the template did not display ( suggesting node-stock-edit.tpl.php is not being recognised ).

I also tried stock-node-edit.tpl.php but no joy.

Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong and what php code to actually include in the edit template ?
At the moment I put the same code as node.tpl.php.

Thanks.

I don't believe you can edit a form simply by creating the template file. Check this out: http://11heavens.com/theming-the-register-form-in-Drupal-6
