OK...
Everything was working just fine with a fresh install of MODx Evolution 1.0.4.
But then I just logged in this morning and the TinyMCE doesn’t display (at all).
I have checked the Tools/Config/Interface & Features section and Editor Enabled is set to Yes for Rich Text and the editor selected is TinyMCE. In the Elements/Manage Elements/Plugins section, when I click on the TinyMCE 3.3.5.1 rich text editor, it is enabled (it is not checked as disabled).
I put all sorts of stuff in it with the TinyMCE editor just days ago and took a break only to build-up our library of photos.
In about 5 hours I was supposed to meet with the client to show them how to use the CMS. I’ll download another Rich Text Editor and install it, but they were planning on doing stuff in Word and so I was planning to make sure they used the Paste Word button.
I definitely want to get it back, it was very convenient and I got quite used to it. It had gone away on me when I upgraded and someone gave me a fix for that, but this was a fresh install. So I doubt that the same fix will work.
I am running PHP Version 5.2.8

Maybe I should clarify...
When I go to edit a document, I am getting the TinyMCE rich text editor selected by default, but I see a simple text area (no rich text menu section above it) and all the text is presented as html.
If I select "Editor to Use" as "None" I am seeing the exact same thing.
Javascript is enabled in my browser. I have used FireFox 3.6.8 and Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18943
Everything was working perfectly early on Saturday morning. The only things I had done since then is upload more photos, (which should not affect anything) and I specified my CSS file (the one I use on the website pages) and my selectors (CSS classes) that I will use (from the same stylesheet that I use for the website).
Have I misinterpreted the meaning/use of specifying the stylesheet and its selectors?
OR does this sound like a hosting issue?
Or has anyone else encountered this?

OK, Issue Resolved:
Apparently I am misinterpreting what the "CSS Selectors" is for. I thought it was to apply classes to the content being edited. Apparently, I am wrong, or I misused it. As soon as I removed my list of selectors, the editor came back.
I am guessing that I cannot use any spaces? So...
’Nearly transparent div=AlmostTransparentBlock;Transparent div=TransparentBlock;Opaque div=Opaque;Float right=fltrt;Float left=fltlft;Clear float=clearfloat;Red text=redtext’
Should be:
’NearlyTransparent div=AlmostTransparentBlock;Transparent div=TransparentBlock;Opaque div=Opaque;Float right=fltrt;Float left=fltlft;Clear float=clearfloat;Red text=redtext’
...or am I still way off?
Thanks... Doug
Nope...
I used the following as my CSS Selectors:
’NearlyTransparent=AlmostTransparentBlock;Transparent=TransparentBlock;Opaque=Opaque;FloatRight=fltrt;FloatLeft=fltlft;ClearFloat=clearfloat;RedText=redtext’
...so I can’t get it working. How am I interpreting this section incorrectly? I can’t seem to get anything working. I have to leave this field completely blank in order to use TinyMCE at all.
Thanks for reading!
