I'll try and explain the problem as best I can....
Basically, a user claimed that he couldn't edit his posts, I demonstrated to him where the buttons where, but he said he could not see them. I logged on as him in firefox and could see them, he said he was using Opera, so I downloaded Opera, tried it and there not there, however he now says that they are there again and says it seems as if they (the edit and quick edit buttons) randomly appear and not appear.
I've never experienced this problem as an admin, they are always showing and the problem has only been experienced in Opera, although I would assume that it was something to do with the permissions, rather than the browser, after all, its all called through php isn't it, so shouldn't be browser related.
However, after a bit of experimenting, I found that when I logged in as the user using a capital "Marsh" (that is how his username is displayed) the edit options appear, when I log in as "marsh" without capitals, it doesn't give that option, so either login case sensitivity needs to be changed, or the query to decide whether or not to display the edit option has some sort of case sensitivity issue.

It'll be the user detection iirc, I think you can change it in header.php as a temp fix - well at least thats where I think the code is
