I'm experiencing a strange issue when trying to modify items in a list in WSS3.

My user is a site collection administrator and should have full permissions on the list. I can view the items, but when I change any of the properties and click OK, nothing happens. The page posts back but it doesn't save my changes.

I don't get any error messages and there is nothing in the logs.

I thought it was this issue http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rodneyviana/archive/2009/12/17/you-cannot-edit-list-or-document-library-items-on-existing-sharepoint-sites.aspx but Rodney's tool reports that the issue isn't present on my site.

I'm at a total loss as to what's going on, any ideas?

UPDATE: I've carried out some more tests, I can edit the list items programmatically and also in Data Sheet view. The problem seems to just be with the standard edit form.

check your ULS log for critical issues that happens when you try to save, and post them here please – Anders Rask♦ Aug 4 '11 at 10:25
There are no specific errors generated when I try and save the list item unfortunately. – RobertDougan Aug 4 '11 at 11:52
Are you using a stock editform or is this custom? – PirateEric Aug 4 '11 at 12:03
It's a standard form, it happens with all lists in the system. – RobertDougan Aug 4 '11 at 12:50
Have you tried this with different browsers or on different machines? – Dave Wise Aug 4 '11 at 14:54
