Error when creating a new category

Hi,

I'm trying to add a new category from  admin mode in cms 7.

I fill "name" and "description" and hit the save-button, and get this error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.UI.DataBoundLiteralControl' to type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox'.

System.Web.UI.Control.RaiseBubbleEvent(Object source, EventArgs args) +84
System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) +3804

Anybody has an idea why this happens?

Strange. I tried it and could create both a new category and a subcatoegory below an already existin one with no problem.

Any special characters in any of the names? Have you tried to create a category with just an "a" as name and description?
