Checking new mu.nu post editor - please ignore

Testing, testing...  Dept

New editor, let’s see how it works:
Bold (selected) but button gets out of sync with style.
Bold (switched)... okay.
Special characters ... first time invoked forced cursor to below break.
Cursor also below break when page opened.
Image: ... which also forced the cursor below the break.
Now both the "B" and "I" buttons are lit... dunno why.
Still strips out extra consecutive spaces.
Colors: AEIOU (all selected)
style locks, linebreak doesn’t release.
Have to close span in HTML editor.

Curious layout problem - Gecko browsers only


Since I added the Indy Blogmeet graphic at the top of this column, at the bottom of the page I’m running out of scroll bar before I get to the end of the posts.  (If you’re seeing this too, I’d appreciate a report in the comments with OS and browser).  Otherwise, this is mostly addressed to mee.nu’s Man In Charge, so I’ve buried the gory details below the jump.

Technical difficulties...


Yes, I know the banner is gone. Its template has vanished mysteriously. Search parties have been sent out. More later.

UPDATE 21:24: Now it’s back, but the file isn’t visible in my template list. I wonder — should I say “thanks,” or “WTF?”.
