I am running Drupal 6.19 with CKeditor (new install under test) and Garland theme. I am formatting blog posts using CKeditor with "Heading 2", "bold" and "italic" tags, but when it's displayed in the page all of the formatting has disappeared. If I re-edit the content, the formatting is still there. For an example, view http://drupal.bikesonshow.com/node/1 - an extract of the source code (from within CKeditor) of the post is shown below. What am I doing wrong?

<p>
	<span class="postbody">There&#39;s lots of information around on how to ride a motorbike, and you usually have to pass a test before you&#39;re allowed to do it. But pillion passengers can get on the back of a bike with no training at all and can create havoc for the rider.</span></p>
<p>
	<span class="postbody">If you would like to know how to be a GOOD pillion passenger, read on and we&#39;ll do our best to pass on what we know.</span></p>
<h2>
	What is a &quot;good pillion&quot;?</h2>
<p>
	<span class="postbody">My other half is a brilliant pillion passenger. I don&#39;t feel her on the back of the bike at all (in fact I have to check now and then to make sure she hasn&#39;t fallen off! She rolls with the flow of my riding style and she almost never second-guesses my decisions. Of course she has a hard time seeing past me, which helps.</span></p>
<p>
	<span class="postbody"><span style="font-weight: bold">Three main things you need to know before you get on the back of a motorbike</span></span></p>
<p>
	<span class="postbody">The first thing to know is that you really have to trust the rider to get you there and back safely. If you can&#39;t trust them, get off and catch the bus. Seriously. Maybe they don&#39;t deserve your trust. Or maybe you&#39;re just a very nervous type. Either way, you will put your life and theirs at risk if you cannot trust the rider to keep you safe.</span></p>

Check which input format is selected for that text area.
And after it from input format settings check if html is allowed or not for that Particular Input Foramt.
This might be causing this issue.

Thanks

Thank you! I thought it would be something simple like that. I need to add some more tags to the filtered HTML!

Much appreciated. Tony
