 Unable to view the contents of the visual tab under a post edit, or
 creation, and am only allowed to veiw the html editor. I tried installing
 the latest version, as of the update it received five minutes after I
 upgraded WP from 2.6 beta 1 to 2.6RC1.

 I am getting several errors as identified by IE7, they are as follows.

 First Error-
 line: 37
 char: 154625
 error: expected '('
 code: 0
 url: ../post-new.php

 Next Error-
 line: 85
 char: 9
 error: 'tinyMCE' is undefined
 code: 0
 url: ../post-new.php

 Next Error-

 line: 163
 char: 34
 eroor: unterminated constant string
 code: 0
 url: ../post-new.php


 I have tried looking through it all and have found nothing that I could
 attribute to either the errors, or the problem I am having here. I have
 installed a fresh copy on my localhost with the same results. No steps are
 needed to replicate the problem, simply open the editor for a post, then
 what I see is that html is already selected, and I cannot change it to
 visual, clicking does nothing except make my browser point out the above
 errors.

 I run the latest versions of IE7, XP SP3, on a broadband connection. I use
 the latest versions of both php and mysql, and since I have tested this on
 both my shared host and my own machine, for which I have ensured the
 latest updates have been installed, I am sure of these newest release only
 status.

 I was using the first beta 2.6 released until around an hour ago.
 Everything else is smooth, but this problem provides that I can only add
 or edit content on my site if I feel like coding the html way every time.
 It is not what this software was meant to do, nor is what I chose this
 software for. Those are the reasons this problem should be looked at.
 Again, I tried, and will continue to try, to find any syntax errors or
 otherwise in the files.

 Thanks
