   IMPORTANT: THIS IS FOR ANYBODY THAT HAS FUNCTION realpath DISABLED BY THE SERVER

   I've found a way to manage and override the usage of realpath function in order to see the tinyMCE toolbar.

   First step:
   Edit tiny_mce_gzip.php and just below

   @require_once('../../../wp-config.php'); // For get_bloginfo().

   add the following code:

   // beggining of myRealPath
   
     function myRealPath($path) {
   
       // check if path begins with "/" ie. is absolute
       // if it isnt concat with script path
       if (strpos($path,"/") !== 0) {
           $base=dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);
           $path=$base."/".$path;
       }
   
       // canonicalize
       $path=explode('/', $path);
       $newpath=array();
       for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($path); $i++) {
           if ($path[$i]==='' || $path[$i]==='.') continue;
              if ($path[$i]==='..') {
                 array_pop($newpath);
                 continue;
           }
           array_push($newpath, $path[$i]);
       }
       $finalpath="/".implode('/', $newpath);
   
       // check then return valid path or filename
       if (file_exists($finalpath)) {
           return ($finalpath);
       }
       else return FALSE;
   }
   
     // end of myRealPath

   Second step:
   Edit and replace inside tiny_mce_gzip.php
   realpath
   into
   myRealPath

   This should get your tinyMCE toolbar working. Make sure that you have "Use the visual editor when writing" under your profile selected.

   Thanks, I was also having this problem and it fixed it straight away. Only problem is I really find the inbuilt editor very restrictive and want to use the plugin - Advanced Tiny MCE Editor and as soon as I turn the plugin on the whole Editor disappears again. Any thoughts on this please?
   You all just blow me away by how much you know!

   many thanks
