Settling in
Well, I've more or less got the page(s) looking more or less the way I'd like. That's not as trivial as the Radio documentation would make it seem.... At the risk of wearing out an old cliche: nothing is every as easy as it looks. Especially if it involves computers.

I also discovered how to access the desktop weblog locally from all the machines on my LAN - it's in the remote access section of the prefs. I had blithly assumed that this would open up the port thru my firewall - not so, which is good. Of course, if I had been aware of this before I purchased Radio, I would have bought the Mac version, as it would have relieved me of the necessity of keeping another machine up. The Mac has pretty much become my main server engine - I'm really impressed by OS X.

So I think I'll head off and try to post some stuff from my laptop before I doze off. Maybe even set up a category or two ....

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
