turning on unfiltered html posts for drupal bloggers

Sounds like your input format "Role" settings do not include your contributors roles. These are checkboxes in the input format configs. In D5 or D6, go to Admin > Site Configuration > Input formats and click each 'configure' link. Look for the "Roles" fieldset where it says:

"Choose which roles may use this filter format. Note that roles with the "administer filters" permission can always use all the filter formats."

While you can set whether or not a CCK text field uses filtered text or not, it does not appear that you can select the default input format on a per field basis when filtered text is selected. Perhaps someone knows a module to allow this?

Thanks that did it!

A module or cck setting to define a default would be great.

be aware that unfiltered HTML is an inherent security risk and should only be allowed for trusted users.

alternatives include allowing additional tags for the filtered input format (from the input format configuration screen), or using specific fields to allow certain content that requires unsafe tags (e.g. by using the emfield module to allow users to "embed" videos).

(when it comes back online) see http://drupal.org/security/secure-configuration which discusses safe use of input formats.
