# Non-admin users break inline CSS when submitting changes

 * If a user isn’t an admin (an editor), when they edit a page, it breaks all the
   inline CSS and removes any scripts or inline stylesheets from the page.
 * We have content writers and they shouldn’t need administrator privileges to change
   the contents of a page in code view through WordPress.
 * When they submit a page, it breaks the inline CSS in weird ways by removing all
   spaces and semicolons. If there is an inline stylesheet, after they submit it,
   the <style> tag will be removed so that the CSS will display as normal text on
   the page.

 * Update: I thought the issue was with TinyMCE, but the visual editor is disabled
   for every user. Regardless, I tried writing in exceptions to extended_valid_elements
   and valid_children arrays to fix this issue.
 * That didn’t work. I also tried installing a TinyMCE advanced configuration plugin
   and adding the exceptions there. Also didn’t work.
 * We have a multiple WordPress installation. If a user is an admin, they still 
   break the pages. BUT if they’re a “Super Admin” (It’s like a network admin over
   all sites) then they don’t break the page. Why would this be happening?
