There are 2 access control settings. Edit [content type] and edit own [content type]. It sounds like you gave them edit own [content type] rather than edit [content type]. Was that the case?

I have actually given them permission to do both. That is what has be so confused.

Try removing the edit own permission but leaving the edit all. If that works it would be time to file a bug report.

I tried that Matt, but no dice. As a contributor I can edit my own page, but nothing else.

~Phil

I really needed this to work by tomorrow, so I tried some basic troubleshooting.

I had set up two additional roles, Administrator and Site Contributor.

Admin worked correctly SC didn't. So I decided to turn on all the permissions for Admin on the SC role, and then went through them one by one until I got the answer.

The Site Contributor must have the Administer filters permission in order to edit content that is not their own creation (especially if the page was created using full html).

Thanks for the help guys. I think I have it the way it needs to be now.

Good job on the troubleshooting. This sounds like a bug to me. I'd be a good idea to file an issue against drupals core on this with as much detail as possible.

I'll do that. What info should I include? Active modules, host info, theme, what else?

~Phil

Make sure all the information like the version of drupal, the active modules, and the behavior you found is in the issue. Provide the basics for your hosting environment, too. If it's by design it will quickly be marked as that.

Just keep track of the issue for when people ask questions for more detail.

Looking at the code I can't see the issue you're having.
