    Unable to edit content using admin part

    I have to support a website developed in umbraco. I am totally new to this and this is am working on this for the very first time. My requirement is very straight-I need to edit the content of a webpage. When I too the page it opened with two tabs - Main Content and Properties. In the main content tab I can edit the Title, Banner image, Content header etc, but not the content of the page. It doesn't give any rich textbox to edit the content. I have uploaded the view of one of the page.

    I need urgently need to edit the content.Please help with this.

    Suja,

    First of all can you click on the about button top right and tell us what version of umbraco is being used. Second can you also tell us which browser you are using.  Next can you click on the properties tab and look at the document type the page is based on then goto settings and look up that document type and see what datatype is set for the content property.

    Regards

    Ismail

    Suja,

    In the document type staff page find the data type Content and report back its type in the drop down.

    Can you use fiddler to see if all javascripts get loaded ? I had this problem too and the problem was missing javascript file

    click on generic properties then you should see the Content data type. I would recommend you get upto speed with basic concepts if your just starting out highly recommend the umbraco book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Umbraco-Users-Guide-Nik-Wahlberg/dp/0470560827/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1319792588&sr=8-1

    Ismail, Thanks for the suggestion. But I have very limitted time. Thats why am directly into the forums. The generic properties tab is saying

    "Master Content Type enabled
    This Content Type uses Web Page as a Master Content Type. Properties from Master Content Types are not shown and can only be edited on the Master Content Type itself"

    ok then navigate up to web page document type and look in properties tab see if you can see the content data type there. What I am trying to ascertain is whether the datatype is set or has been removed or if there what type it is.

    Regards

    suja,

    go with dawoe suggestion think you may have missing js becuase that last screen shot shows that all is well in the document type setup.
