Firefox bug in preview: This has been happening to me for quite some time. XP - Firefox/1.5.0.4 When previewing the "preview" and "post" buttons display behind the text field and are unclickable. Most times I back up and retry but today it was rather sticky.
I got something else here: whether I'm using IE or Firefox, my office still leaks rainwater next to my desk. I think the solution may be in getting tropical storm Ernesto out of here, but who knows. All I know is, putting your offices in a refurbished 18th/19th century cotton warehouse is not a good idea.

I am willing to take this on and fix it as it drives me nuts. So does the BILINK button set needing to be clicked once to move it to its proper location and once again to use it. Yukon, when they get hung up, I just hit F5 and try again. The stickiness? Might be your pants.

Well, time to hijack this thread: "Let me give you a saying from Colonel Sanders. I am too drunk to taste this chicken." "I like to think of Jesus as a mischevious badger." "I wanna thank little baby Jesus, who's sittin' in his crib watchin the Baby Einstein videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors."

NoMich, does a refurbished cotton warehouse still smell like cotton? Because I think that might be nice.

"I like to think of Jesus as wearin' a Tuxedo T-Shirt, that says, like, "I want to be formal, but I like to party too." I like to party, so I like my Jesus to party too."

I'll make a stab at this bug this afternoon. I need to rope Kirk into helping, but I haven't figured out how to support SFTP on a Windows box.

That's a lot of tabbing. There's no way he could have actutally recommended that.

I haven't figured out how to support SFTP on a Windows box. Uploading via SFTP or setting up SFTP through IIS? It looks like SFTP is not available through IIS and won't be in IIS7 either. Could you do WebDAV?

SFTP: Go for WinSCP, its open source freeware goodness. Also, I can't believe you guys are already quoting Talledega Nights as if it were the new Lebowski.

Filezilla, Dude. SFTP with respect for things like UI and beverages. WinSCP is like telnet with icons.

Yerfatma pointed out using tab and then hitting enter works quite well to catch those elusive preview and post buttons.
