Advanced text box without any features.

[The Slug]

Hello People Be Kind,

I have been dropped in it to build and run a forum and have no idea what, or how to do even basic things, but its up and people can post.

So My question is no matter what text method I use Basic, Advanced, or Standard. My text box does not look like the one i'm typing into now. I have no Smilies, no options at all for changing text, font etc, just a basic box with nothing around it and no options. I do see the widgets under the box. this is the same for ALL users, and the same in advanced.
In the CP I have tried all 3 options from basic to WYSIWYG, and the box is the same in all views.

Also if you use the txt code for a smile it will appear so they are loaded and do work just you have no way of selecting them. Smilies are .png if that helps!

So its version 4.1.6, I have advanced text selected and its pretty much as it came out of the box, as I have just started.

I have used the search facility on here so before I get told to look I have but most of the links are talking about the web address being placed in front of the location for the Smilies that is not the case here.

If you want to see the problem have a look at www.stratosec.com/forum no I'm not plugging the site but it helps if you see the fault.

And the buttons at the top of the forum "home, Forum Blogs" etc what are they called I need to make a new one but cant search that as I dont know what you call them.

Thanks in advance.....
