Yeah but you won't like 'em. :)

I'm wondering if there's a particular permission level that would get rid of 
the bug when applied at the list level. Something a little short of Contributor.

Failing that just make him a Contributor to the library and remind him to only 
edit the page in question. Any accidental or malicious damage can be restored  
if versioning and/or approval are enabled.

Thanks Paul.

Yes, it is a publishing pages library.

Just tried it and I was able to modify the page successfully as you suggested 
below.

Problem is (and given your email you'll probably sympathise) the person editing 
the page is a student at a school so I was hoping they could get to edit mode 
via the Edit Page method as it's simpler (particularly when it comes to editing 
web parts on the page). Got any other suggestions?

Cheers,

Iain

Just did a search and am assuming that it is.

Have you tried modifying the page by checking it out and using the Edit 
Properties screen instead?

My searching on Google has found other people with this problem but no solution.

I have a site with a pages list. I have set up a user to have Contribute access 
to a specific page so that they can edit the page. They only have Read access 
to the pages list so that they cannot edit any other pages.

The user sees the Site Actions button on that one page only, and can select 
Edit Page. However they are then put into shared edit view with a message on 
the page saying "You are editing the shared version of this page". There's no 
check in or publish buttons and when they click on Exit Edit Mode their changes 
are not saved.

Anyone know how I fix this?

Cheers,

Iain Carlin
