Yeah, I’d say that’s a problem all right, Con! As the saying goes, ‘it’s all Greek to me!’ Good luck with getting it sorted…
gaelikaa´s last blog ..The Wild Things I Did in my Youth
Well, I managed to get one post in WITH an image and will try again, soon. The one I hand-edited and got in was International Misunderstanding. So, gaelikaa, I’ll get there. It is just a lot of work – and I hate to work!
Work what is it good for, absolutely nothing. now say it again!
I am SO ready to retire. If only I had money to live off of.
Conrad,
Do you write directly in HTML? I gave up on my editor after the first month of so. It was too much of a pain and HTML is easy once you take the time to learn it.

Oops! That should have been “first month or so.”

I can write in html, but, being fully employed with my own business and things I’d rather do, I find it to be kind of a pain in the butt! Windows Live Writer is really a pretty good blog post generator and, up til now, it has served me well. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that I end by reinstalling it.
Worst case, I can always take the time to write my own html. Friday will be that way in all likelihood, like the last two weeks have been.
Conrad, I feel your pain!
I used Windows Live Writer at one stage – it was fine at the beginning, but all of a sudden with an update of Wordpress it all went like your piece above. I eventually uninstalled it as it was more trouble than it was worth for me. If I copy and paste from Word to the blog I get a mile of gobeldygook that has to be removed from html mode. If I must copy and paste nowadays I use Notepad and so far (she whispers) it works.

Shackman, it is usually the Bozo key that works best for me, but it isn’t taking care of this one.
Marianna, it is like all of life! Grand when it works, LOL.
Today hasn’t been a pain after all….compared.
